  1. Ephemeral Living Spaces and Everyday Objects. Exhibition in the CONTAINER integrated into the ROOTS FESTIVAL 2024 “Roots and Post-Memory”. In this exhibition, we place objects at the center of the narrative, as reflections of expressions of power, testimonies of luxury and comfort perpetuated by cultural ideals that romanticize the figure of the "explorer," "adventurer," and "traveler." We examine private lives, scientific spaces, and field hierarchies reinforced by the distinction between the uses of objects.. 2024. Borges, Sofia Barreto. https://lac.org.pt/roots-2024/.

2024/11/19 - 2024/11/19 OUTDOOR LIVING: Between Science and Leisure. Confluences and Performativities of Travel Objects A tent from the Portuguese colonial scientific expeditions to Africa in the 1940s. A tent from member no. 10 of the Lisbon Camping Club in the 1950s. Between the search for freedom and rest, and the confinement and regulation of camping parks; between science and the political agenda justified by "Lusotropicalism," what networks connected these worlds? What can these logistical objects still reveal to us today? (2024/11/19 - 2024/11/19)
