When Stones Speak
Discover the ingenuity and sustainability of an ancient technique
As apprentices of the dry-stone waller's trade, we will delve into the temporary exhibition Two Stones. Persistent Landscapes .
Stone by stone, we will uncover the secrets and wonders of this ancient technique. We will learn about the different uses and characteristics of this type of construction across various territories, landscapes, and functions.
And, if we listen closely to these ancient stones, we will learn that they have much to tell us about the future challenges we face today!
Finally, we will put ourselves to the test and, as a group, build a dry-stone structure! Will we succeed?
This is the educational proposal linked to the exhibition Plastic.
