Mapping the city: post-presentation

When beginning our journey from the Federazione del Fasci Milanesi to Triennale di Milano, a feeling of suppression to being more open was felt along our way. To better describe our journey, an exhibit was created as our presentation. This idea was inspired by one of the exhibitions at the Triennale. Our journey was divided into seven key stops as described in my last blog about this project. These key stops were described by a single word during our exhibit presentation. Our presentation focused on the emotional feeling that our journey took us from past to present time. Even though the headquarters was build after the Triennale, the environment we were in at the beginning felt so heavy. With a history of Mussolini giving address to his people at this central location of Milan, an individual is likely to exhibit a feeling of suppression with its fascist theme building. Continuing our journey from a feeling of suppression, deplete, stimulate, rouse, mobilize, uplift, and feeling of expand in the end are used to describe the key stops. Though during our first walk, we did not know how to present the feelings we felt during the journey, an exhibition from Triennale inspired us that there is no better way to progress through time then to have an exhibition.
