Strata

A collection of geologically informed everyday items, cast in concrete and characterised by earthen tones. Stratification is the overlapping of various mineral compositions, where the upper layers are younger than the ones under them, showing the passing of time in stacks of diverse deposits. The Mediterranean basin is home to a multitude of diverse geological phenomena, with a rich story of sedimentation, erosion, and strong volcanic activity, all of which contribute to make a unique stratified environment. This concept makes us reflect on our conception of time through the geological spectrum in the Mediterranean and our planet as a whole. Discover more on : urbietorbi.gr
