BORDER MEMORIES
Re-enacting difficult heritage
[by Elisa Mansutti, 2013]

Set within the transnational territory of Venezia Giulia, shared by Italy, Slovenia, and Croatia, the project addresses landscapes marked by unresolved ethnic conflict. Rather than preserving memory as a static record, the thesis proposes its re-activation through architecture, engaging traces embedded in soil and geography. The work confronts forms of removal and silence surrounding traumatic histories, using spatial interventions to reopen processes of collective recollection and reinterpretation.
