The project
Social media become means of creative communication that connect the inhabitants of the district’s imagery and visions. Alphabets created from the traces left on the territory, on its walls, its windows, from the thousand dreams of a multiethnic, noble and working-class part of Rome. What words can be used to describe a multiform space and which distinguishing marks?
The experiment was to seek the complicity of the citizens, inhabitants and regulars: asking for their perspectives to compose a mosaic of impressions to be social, rather than mediatic.
The project was not only held on digital media. Its aim was to convey the substance of our social connections, the truth of the place. Thus, a shared ‘white book’ has been designed, where everyone is welcome to write their story and the impressions San Lorenzo has given them, or to draw something and leave a trace of their passage. This is the origin of an artwork with no author, or rather where we all are the authors. An artwork just like a district.
