O Encontro das Partes Partidas

Paulo Wirz’s research at the Collegium Helveticum delved into the intricate themes of virtuality, preservation, and material attachment—encompassing sentimental, physical, and symbolic dimensions—with death as a central focus. His culminating exhibition speculates on the "de-materialization" of concepts such as "the matter," the "visible" and the "invisible," the "real" and the "non-real." Through this exploration, Wirz opens up new heterotopic questions and reflections, challenging and expanding the boundaries of his research topics.
