AOTRÓPICO EDÉN (AOTOPIC EDEN)

Considering the famous work of Helio Oitizica Eden as a starting point, we propose the recreation of a kind of paradisiacal mini refuge for artists and art lovers that will be temporarily installed in different streets or squares of the city. To this end, a mobile support will be built to move following a schedule, including different activities to dynamize the space.
