The project for the Venice Biennale investigates Polish rurality, forms of dwelling, and forms of production from the past, present and future. The research aims to look at the countryside through the lens of the radical attempt of the socialist state to collectivise living and labour in the rural context during the second half of the 20th century. Moreover, problems like the regress of the post-socialist city, internal migration towards the countryside, growing spatial chaos and ongoing climate crisis make the investigation towards the countryside relevant.
