Unconventional mapping is a collaborative project which has involved the neighbourhood of San Paolo, in Turin, to give shape to ideas and dreams of the people who live there.
After two focus groups with old and new residents, Roberto Hikimi Blefari and Fernando Cobelo created two illustrated maps of the area, drawing unconventional and emotional places.
During the exhibition at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, the visitors were also invited to share their point of view through two interactive installations.
