If children wanted to turn the entire city into their own personal museum, what would they take?
Have you ever tried asking them?
During the Cityscapes – Digital Museum of Memory project, we asked ourselves these questions and together with children from the Trullo, Corviale, Tor Bella Monaca and Torpignattara neighborhoods, we conducted several collage workshops.
With CAP we asked children what they would like to see in their personal museum and then we asked them to shape it by cutting images and sticking them on a map of Rome.
We have collected some of the most significant shots of those days and decided to show you the scans of the imaginary maps / museums that the children created.
The Cityscapes – Digital Museum of Memory project, presented by CAP – Cities Art Projects and artist Valeriana Berchicci, is the winner of the Lazio Region’s Lazio Contemporanea – Lazio innova call for proposals.
The project, developed in 2021, took place in five neighborhoods of Rome: Torpignattara, Tor Bella Monaca, Corviale, Trullo and Centro and is divided into several phases.
The city is thus transformed into a chorus of emotions and memories ready to guide anyone who wants to, on a journey that breaks out of customary timelines and geography. Therefore, it is not a tourist guide for those who are afraid of getting lost, but a map for those who want to experience in the deepest way a city as rich in history as Rome.
