A concrete imprint of one’s life, a customised dream, a ruin of socio-political imaginaries – three films speak about experiences encapsulated within a series of spaces. The installation Stories of Spaces by Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine delves into the symbolic grounds of architecture. The three film projects have been originally created as artistic contributions, yet Butohouse (2019), Selling Dreams (2016), La Maddalena / La Maddalena Chair (2014) have never been shown together in a single installation. Their protagonist’s experiences echo through the exhibition space, immersing the audience in a sensory journey and inviting viewers to engage in their conversations and reflections. The installation opens up space for reading architecture as a representative of the experiences accumulated within it. It promotes a moment to rethink practices and policies through buildings and their contradictions.
