IT WAS ALL FIELDS ONCE - New Ruralities Exhibition

0 フォロワー

IT WAS ALL FIELDS ONCE is both an exploration and an invitation. It brings together spatial practices, research, and artistic perspectives that unsettle the urban-rural binary and trace the rural where it is least expected, even within the city itself. Rather than fixating on the rural as a place, the exhibition approaches it as a condition: shaped by memory, migration, ecology, labour, and desire. It focuses on practices, relationships, rituals, and traditions, all ready to be rediscovered, reinterpreted, and reinvented. The exhibition unfolds across two complementary venues: CIVA and TRACK. While CIVA begins to assemble an archive of rural practices, rituals, and artefacts, TRACK expands and reimagines these through an artistic lens. Situated at a train station that physically and symbolically connects city and countryside, TRACK becomes a threshold: an in-between space that brings rurality into the urban and explores its transformative potential.
