The idea is to realise a huge charcoal and graphite drawing on the floor of one of the halls of the Village. The drawing, only partially fixed, has to be something mimetic, an intervation that isn’t immediately readable: countless tiny figures traced on the original layout of the original paving of the hall, which will gradually disappear as the new “inhabitants” walk over them. The figures, many, many falling children, call back to the original function of this place (with a symbolic tone, and in harmony with my poetics) and take advantage of the powerful suggestions that this location has given me.The image, present trace of the lives that have inhabited the village, continued to obsessively recour in my thoughts during and after the visit. The obsession is crucial for the understanding of how much a project, an idea, has deeply taken root. One one hand, in the architectural design the attention reiterated to the actual function of the location, that is to say the hosting of children on holiday (the height-adjustable, child-friendly hair dryers, the small beds placed in tiny half-rooms, the light-blue lamps in the shapes of mushrooms outside, the linking system, both labyrinthine and intuitive…), on the other the strong vibe of “lived” that the rooms, even deserted, continue to emanate, have stirred in me the ideas and thoughts pertinent to my research, focused in fact on the themes of childhood, identity, and on the representation of places and visions from a dreamlike perspective.
