Find WONDERLAND OR tHE The Cheshire Cat IS
BACK
ARRIVING AT THE MUSEUM-TOWER BELOW
SEA-LEVEL, BY METRO OR BY THE ENTRANCE RAMP FROM THE PIER, THE
VISITOR IS CONFRONTED WITH THE PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY
EXHIBITIONS THAT DOCUMENT THE PORTRAITS OF IMMIGRANTS AND THEIR
FATES.
THE VISITOR HIMSELF TURNS INTO A KIND OF
IMMIGRANT BY ARRIVING UNDER THE TOWER AND FINDING HIMSELF IN AN
UNKNOWN ENVIRONMENT. he THERBY TURNS INTO HIS OWN SHADOW, JUST
LIKE THE GRINSING CAT IN "ALICE IN
WONDERLAND".
THE SEQUENCE OF AREAS THAT RAISES DESIRE
AND EXPECTATIONS INSPIRE A PERMANENT PERSPECTIVE-SHIFT. THE
TOWER OF INFINITE POSSIBILITIES, AS A LANDMARK WITH ITS
POSITIVE (TOWER) AND NEGATIVE (BUILT SHADOW) POSES ITSELF AS AN
INTERFACE BETWEEN THE OVER -AND UNDERGROUND, CULTURES AND
SOCIETIES.
find wonderland in the mirror and beyond
yourself - desire and identity
