Why do young generations must inhabit a land shaped just for an old population?

we the people

Alessia Frerotti

An analog photographic series that aims to inscribe a space through the people who inhabit it.

Six streets lead to a single square, known in the city of Trento for its nightlife, these streets  have been closed to the public during the evening hours, after the numerous complaints of the people that reside in the area and because they have been considered a risk for the pandemic situation. This series has been taken after the pandemic lockdown situation and before the road closure, during an active protest by the young generations tired of not finding their place in a city meant only to comfort the older part of the population.

A project made in the course

Studio Exhibit | Yesterday Tomorrow: Memory in Art

As a first assignment, the students were asked to “inhabit” the work of one of the artists who participated in the exhibition “tell me about yesterday tomorrow”. Starting from there, they should acquire tools to develop their own work. In the second assignment, following the historical perspective introduced by the very same exhibition, they should develop a personal work dealing with the topic of “memory”. The supporting modules provided the students with historical and theoretical insight on the topic of the studio, and offered technical tools to exhibit the resulting works online.
