Looking beyond the monuments of the city center, I plan to study the abandoned and forgotten spaces of Rome that currently lie dormant. My project will identify a matrix of liminal spaces, such as disused cinemas, factories, markets, or train stations, that will serve as settings for site-specific drawing installations. For over ten years I have researched the periphery of architecture, investigating materiality, space, and light independent of the typical constraints that accompany everyday architectural practice. This research has resulted in installations that employ drawing to question conventional logic and attitudes about a site, while simultaneously revealing discarded histories pivotal to the narrative of place. These investigations serve as a fundamental contribution to my architectural practice, providing a means to understand my role as an architect in the future of the city.
