The “Preserving Delay” exhibition analyses the complex cultural scenario of Palermo, developing strategies to recognise and preserve the identity and intensity that characterise the Sicilian capital. Isolation, slowness and delay are seen as qualities to be preserved, to try to avoid the mistakes in which many “advanced” cities have incurred.

Among the presented projects: my project aims at a diffused archive for Letizia Battaglia... where in I made an ephemeral intervention around Palermo. The scenography in which the research is presented is in dialogue with the general theme of Manifesta 12: the Planetary Garden.
