Terraformation. Bridging Worlds

Terraformation is a project dedicated to constructing a museum in a rural area of Sicily using natural techniques, led by a group of artists and architects from diverse backgrounds who met in Berlin. The project in collaboration with Farm Cultural Park, aims to bridge the gap between rural and urban resources and address current environmental and economic crises. The museum serves as an example of collective cooperation between individuals and disciplines and stands at the intersection of two global discourses: ecology and the socio-economic marginalization of the Global South.

Berlin’s call for affordable housing and sustainable living finds resonance in Sicily, a region known for its rich farming tradition and numerous vacant areas. Young people relocating to other cities for better job opportunities cause brain drain and economic decline, especially in rural areas.Terraformation is a project that wants to inspire new ways of thinking about our relationship with the environment and each other, creating a model for sustainable, community-driven development.
