Construction of Memory
Urban Walk by Gabriela Albergaria
The idea of time.
The construction of the memory of a place.
The function of each place, its stories, and its changes over time.
Natural versus artificial materials, and what the memory of the material holds.
How we relate to the natural/built place and the natural/“wild” place.
The fear of the “natural”, the distance between human beings and nature.
The material, the history and the alteration of meanings.
The route starts at a museum and garden, construction and nature. It goes on to a place of observation/study of nature that uses the construction of a nature preservation greenhouse, and ends in a church whose history is related to the history of the country and the people of Lisbon.
