The workshop in Milan, which took place in October 2023, focused on the area nearby Porto di Mare, where the urban fabric (with a complex demographic structure) abruptly leads into the countryside (with a socially complex past).
In collaboration with architects from the Politecnico di Milano, we (Norwegian Theatre Academy Master's students in Scenography) explored mapping concepts based on empirical sonic and olfactory walks. To gain a deeper understanding of the area, I spent several hours blindfolded. This experience helped suppress my rational perspective and heighten my other senses.
As a result, Aliaksandra Rameika and I collaborated to present a concept of an "invisible" sensory map based on my non-visual experiences.
