LA PLAZA_study

Elisa Sbaragli

The square is a field of tensions, of rituals and actions, made of presences and absences that accumulate and layer over time. The Plaza is a collective memory of a discontinuous plurality: bodies, identities, and characters intersecting, solitudes becoming a multitude. Public space thus becomes unstable, crossed by the unforeseen, where ritual fractures and continually transforms.
