Same As It Ever Was: Croatian Pavilion Examines Coexistence Models at the 2023 Venice Biennale
The Croatian Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2023 celebrates the harmonious coexistence of the wild and domesticated, natural and man-made, and inanimate and living elements. Modeled after the Lonja Wetlands in Croatia, where communities that have adapted to the continuously shifting landscape have coexisted harmoniously for generations to create a dynamic habitat, the Pavilion is a hub for ongoing research into potential futures through educational experimentation and practice. Curated by Mia Roth and Toni Erina, “Same As It Ever Was”, places a focus on the connections among actors from various backgrounds around the world.
