The project establishes conversations with a series of pieces by contemporary artists formally and conceptually close to the three thematic axes of the exhibition: A first section explores care, aging and dependency; a second section explores loss, remembrance and memory, conveying these concepts through objects; and a third section explores the imaginary of the cemetery as a space for life.
