Liquid Forest: Spazi in movimento tra utopia e distopia

**Liquid Forest** is a question posed as an answer, an experiment suspended between utopia and dystopia, a tension that never resolves. It is the vector of an elusive immanence, an artifice that becomes nature, an ambiguity that rejects any fixed category. Utopia is an open possibility, continuously transforming; dystopia is the risk of getting lost in the uncertainty of a world without definitions. It is neither a return to nature nor an assertion of artifice, but a creation that glides between utopia and dystopia in a state of perpetual change.

It is a **continuum**, like a Möbius strip, where interior and exterior, artifice and nature intertwine and dissolve, making it impossible to distinguish where one ends and the other begins. It is a **reappropriation of space**, not as domination but as an opening. Here, the artificialization of the natural and the naturalization of the artificial dissolve barriers, blending *natura naturans* and *natura naturata* into a ceaseless flow. It is a **place of deconstruction**, where the solid dissolves into the fluid and the living, and vice versa, inhabiting uncertainty.

Devices such as coverings, walls, diaphragms, rooms, and excavations operate through simple actions: lifting, lowering, moving, opening, separating, hiding, dividing, welcoming. These gestures trigger complex dynamics of **hybridization**, acting as **thresholds** that catalyze transformations, generate tensions, and open up multiple possibilities.

**Liquid Forest** is a landscape that continuously reinvents itself, reflecting the impossibility of defining it in fixed terms. It cannot be “completed” because it has neither an end nor a final objective. It is an *outside* that refuses to be enclosed within an *inside*, a **play of intensities** that becomes space and time. It is an **ecosystem of shifting relationships**, where form is in constant trans-form-ation.

Rejecting all stasis, it echoes *Dissipatio H.G.*, where the world is in dissolution, yet from it emerges the hope of a new beginning. It is the encounter between nature, which refuses to be fixed, and the city, which never finds peace—an experience suspended between **order and chaos**, a form that never ceases to become something else. Here, the urban landscape dissolves and regenerates, inviting us to **rethink the relationships between artifice and nature through embodied experience**.
