The exhibition Potential Architecture condenses some of the key concepts on which the artistic duo Lucy + Jorge Orta have focused their research over the last three decades. In particular, the potential of new forms of dwelling and ways of living in relationship with our identity, the environment, frontiers, and cross border migration.

The body of works presented by SPARC, includes a series of large format drawings and collage, architectural models in light-steel and hand-blown glass and key work from the Antarctica project, a tent dwelling appliquéd with clothes, gloves and silkscreen printed world flags that addresses international human rights and the value of the natural environment to our daily lives and to our survival. 

Architecture has a key role in shaping the artists’ practice and concepts, through which it is possible to imagine the cohabitation of humans and non-humans today and for the future.
