LACUNA - Land of hidden spaces

LACUNA. Land of hidden spaces is part of a bigger project, called Reflecting Venice; this intends to investigate the possibility of responding to last year’s increase of environmental issues affecting Venice, in Italy. Through the application of an interdisciplinary methodology, Reflecting Venice explores technological innovation and its implications. Considering local context in conjunction with new environmental goals is beneficial in redefining their broader effectiveness and functionality. The video has the will to combine and intertwine the different 'actors' of the project: a prototype of solar wall made with mirrors, referring to Archimedes' inventions, the ancient tradition of engraved glass in Murano (Venice), and the fragile environment of the Lagoon, now in peril.
