SPACE DESIGN RECONFIGURATION
Genoma Exhibition sponsored by Institute Sangari was on tour for two years in Rio de Janeiro /Petropolis at SESC Quitandinha ( a former 1930`s Cassino) in 2010 and Vitoria / Palacio Anchieta 2012. The original exhibition was adapted and reconfigurated for the specific spaces.
Both very different and challenging. While in Victoria it was a more standard Museum space, the Rio de Janeiro venue was a challenge, a circular empty space with very large windows up to 6 meters, no infrastructure for hanging anything as ceiling is a huge 30 m diameter Dome, one of the biggest in South America …as it can be seen on the images below. The exhibition also counted with various live plants and specimens and taxidermy, as well as high-tech installations to tell about life evolution.
