IN_FLUSSI is a canopy for temporary events and performances. The project was commissioned in 2012 for Verdecoprente Festival during the European Heritage Days. The suspended canopy is anchored to the existing 13th century cloister and it is a visual filter between the ground and the sky. The surface is organized in a 5x5 grid, generating a structure composed by four types of modules resulting in a connected surface of twenty-five units. Each module corresponds to a specific type of relationship between the body-vision and occupation. The modules made of fabric mesh define zones of visual and physical interaction, engaging the audience into a dynamic flow. The openings allow a direct visual trajectory projected towards the sky; the extrusions embrace the body, creating individual moments within the collective. space. Because of its modular and light-weight nature, It is a transportable and flexible structure that can be re-used in similar urban conditions.
