The exhibition revolves around the biological paradigm that draws increasing interest in the field of contemporary architecture: from the nano-scale of individual cells to larger global environmental phenomena and from materials to the resulting structures and urban spaces they create, the exhibition examines new relations taking shape between human beings and their environment.
The conceptual foundation of the exhibition centers upon ‘resilience’, an essential element of biological systems that refers to their ability to cope with shock or trauma. This concept bears increased significance upon Israel and its geo-political context, where states of crisis continually rise up, greatly influencing quality of life and spatial design.
