As part of Europe Week, the exhibition \u201cGeography of Care\u201d opened at Villa 31 in Tirana.<\/p>\n
Three artists \u2014 Mariana Kostandini, Olsi Hoxha, and Orestia Kapedani \u2014 present three different approaches to social, spatial, and political realities, connecting their works to the history of the villa itself.<\/p>\n
One of artist Olsi Hoxha\u2019s installations focuses on the dictator\u2019s piano, conceived as an interactive artwork for visitors.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe other work is an installation created specifically for this place, which I made for the dictator\u2019s piano. It is a stream of sounds, an interactive piece where the piano serves as an ego, and visitors themselves will come and play the piano,\u201d says Olsi Hoxha.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Orestia Kapedani, in her work \u201cDuality\u201d (\u201cDyp\u00ebrnjahja\u201d), reflects on the history of her grandfather and her village of origin, blending archival material with personal memory.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe works are divided into two chapters, Qaf\u00eb Molla and Fan. In my research, many documents come together. It is a longer process of research that emerged for me as a need to physically reconnect. By trying to preserve what you can, you attempt to save something that is disappearing,\u201d says Orestia Kapedani.<\/p>\n
The exhibition \u201cGeography of Care\u201d explores borders, rituals, and practices, highlighting the fragility of territorial, social, and personal boundaries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
