Museum without Walls

Since the community was being used as a construction site for the Olympic Park - one of the strategies used to pressure residents and compel families to accept the proposal of the City of Rio de Janeiro -, the sculpture “Suporte dos Males” and part of the sculpture “Espaço Ocupa e Casa da Dona Conceição” were destroyed by tractors.

You are the crossroad of your memories - Born from clay and modelled in 3D, this installation is composed by a virtual room, a performance program and a digital publication. Its shape, inspired by the moringa, an object used by aboriginal peoples for storing and cooling water, is a reminder and an invitation: a reminder that without its union with natural elements, our existence would not be possible; and an invitation to play with the porosity of memory, identity and body. Concept and realization: Pedra Silva, Garu e Rodrigo Lopes.

The processes that culminated in the independence of the former European colonies affected disciplines that, directly or indirectly, legitimized colonial power. The New Museology movement provoked actions that brought the museum closer to the community, making it possible to include groups related to the safeguarded collections within the institutions.
