“Contamination is what I’m really interested in, since a long time. I’ve always supported the exchange between other architects, artists, artisans and laborers in all the projects I took part in.
The most unusual intersections can create new nourishment to things and can generate new answers, new visions.
“Gianni Rodari used to say: aside grammar, they should teach the fictional in schools. There’s nothing more true than that. Through imagination and sharing, thoughts get created which, in turn, create practices. Good practices, real practices, that transform places, hence people and their everyday life.”
“To encourage some sort of engagement in the area and, in the meanwhile, imagine something that could be of some value for its social fabric is the real challenge. And to me, it is a moral obligation.”
Architect, territorial and experience planning researcher for Eterotopia collective and curator of the urban cultural project SPAZIO DOPO? (Corvetto area, Milano)
