    Ignored Realm

    Ignored Realm. Multispecies urban vision

    Italy
    In the current crisis of paradigms taken for granted, the peri-urban fabric represents the territory of rebirth, overcoming the globalizing and unifying vision to make room for a multiform logic capable of taking into account the diverse needs of the "peoples" who inhabit our everyday life. The constant and historical Human/Nature opposition loses its place in favor of a vision that takes into account what we thought was inert: in Gaia, the totality of these beings, finds its name.

    Piss Soap

    Piss Soap is a regenerative soap made entirely out of human activity waste.

    Netherlands
    The idea of Piss Soap is to offer a new place for waste and discarded material that we load in trash bags and dispose of. The project offers a new cycle of life to waste, creating a circular economy and production that contributes actively to reducing our impact on the environment, while benefiting directly our urban surroundings. Piss soap challenges our understanding of the binary of dirtiness and cleanliness and invites the maker and user to realign their vision upon discarded matter.

    Collectively Reimagining Our Cities – Practicing Our Right to the City

    Italy
    We are a citizens' initiative that aspires to collectively redesign public spaces in Bolzano. The city is strongly focused on its centre, from which an entire neighbourhood is separated by a large wasteland. By inviting citizens to co-create interim uses for this abandoned area, we can revitalize these neighbourhoods and empower residents to address their own needs. In a city still grappling with hidden, historical divisions, we can create a welcoming place of community that ensures equal access
