PROVING GROUNDS

Public Talk

What are the territories that we need to navigate today?


Openfabric (NL/IT), an international landscape architecture practice, and Hyperscapes Research Office (IT), an interdisciplinary spatial research collective, presented their approaches to planetary urbanization, exploring architecture as both a medium and the result of complex global processes.
PROVING GROUNDS was a multimedia, research-based exhibition at Esto showcasing the work of Open Fabric (NL/IT) and HRO (IT), alongside an open talk featuring Filippo Albertini, Giada Zuan, and Konstantinos Venis.

The exhibition explored themes of contemporary migration, ecology, and politics through architecture and landscape urbanism. It featured ‘Migrating Mediterranean’, a cartographic project by Openfabric that examines resources, migration, and instability in the Mediterranean.

Curated and hosted by Esto Association, in collaboration with Openfabric Studio and Hyperscapes Research Office.
