Breathing Circle - Land Art as a Collective Ground 

The site is understood as a moving ground—seismically active, ecologically fluctuating, and socially marked by the aftermath of the 2016 earthquake. The project approaches it as an active and unstable field where memory, material displacement, and environmental change are deeply intertwined. Beyond its ecological dimension, the project operates as a collective act of repair—social, spatial, and symbolic. It seeks to re-establish a relationship between people and place through direct engagement with the land, transforming construction into a form of care. Breathing Circle aims to make the fragility of the territory visible and shared, enabling a slow reconnection through collective building as a way of stitching together a landscape shaped by loss, adaptation, and continued transformation.

Developed for Terremosse × SESAM, with support of the Lenza Club. The workshop brings together local and international participants in a shared process of knowledge exchange, construction, and situated practice.

Concept and development: Earthscapes
Tutors: Bojana Bjelic & Melissa Claire Soh

Further documentation of the process will be shared as the workshop develops, starting July 2026.
