Unbuilt: Museum, Conté on paper, 23″ x 32″, 2008
The small silent museum is unmarked on most tourist maps and rarely visited. It is housed in a narrow, high-ceilinged palazzo that was abandoned in the war. Built with only a few, tiny windows the unventilated, ochre walls give off a vaguely moldy smell and if you drag your finger along their surface you will discover chalk on your fingertips. The main attraction is a sculptural fragment created by the ancient inhabitants, guarded by the bored son of a local grocer.
