The exhibition "Weft and Warp: Weaving Rural Territories: Housing and Community" examines the interrelationships between rural communities and various architectural proposals in China, Spain, and Mexico. Through a selection of architectural projects, photographs, videos, and testimonials, the show reveals how contemporary architectural practices can revitalize local communities by addressing demographic challenges and cultural identity loss. The exhibition highlights the role of the relationship between architecture and community in producing projects that promote a sense of belonging, sustainability, and resilience, emphasizing interventions in public spaces, facilities, and housing. The show explores how the warp of architecture and the weft of local communities intertwine and enhance each other to shape new vibrant and sustainable rural dynamics.
