Constellation Malta

Besides, recent scientific discoveries have shown that, among celestial constellations, there is a specific typology called “dark cloud constellations” which are formed by a magma of dense and impenetrable shadows of nebulae where new stars and matter is born. By associating the term Constellation with the name of Malta, certain locations in the Maltese archipelago will metaphorically become meaningful stars, nodes that will guide our journey through the physical and cultural topographies rediscovered by the creativity and the imagination of contemporary artists. The proposed route through configuration of archaeological sites, museums, churches, windmills, gardens, quarries or natural landscapes will outline a multi-site exhibition embedded in the geography of the Maltese archipelago. The dialogue between contemporary art and cultural heritage will enrich the conversation how we live together. By unveiling the meaning embodied by these new “stars”, the spectators will be invited to create their own paths of meaning.
