RiVER / Embassy of Floods, with Kitti Baracsi

How do emotional, political, economic and social landscapes change if we place the river at their centre? Thinking through the river shifts anthropocentric and short-term perspectives, enabling us to move forward in conversations that have reached an impasse. RiVER – Other Views of the City is an ongoing itinerant observatory of urban transformations, based on the centrality of the river. Through creative and imaginative interventions, it co-creates and activates a multimodal and ecopoetic glossary of urban space. The experimentation takes place through hybrid community-based artistic interventions, developed together with people of different ages and lived experiences. Interpreting an imagined institution — the Embassy of Floods — children, young people and intergenerational groups imagine alternative futures and presents through the “eyes” of the river.
