Made possible by the generous assistance of Yayasan Sime Darby, this public talks programme brings together regional curators, writers, cultural workers and artists to address some of the issues that are swimming thick in our heads.

“Aquae Urbis Romae is an interactive cartographic history of the relationships between hydrological and hydraulic systems and their impact on the urban development of Rome, Italy. Our study begins in 753 BC and will ultimately extend to the present day. Aquae Urbis Romae examines the intersections between natural hydrological elements such as springs, rain, streams, marshes, and the Tiber River, and constructed hydraulic elements such as aqueducts, fountains, sewers, bridges, conduits, etc., that together create the water infrastructure system of Rome.”

sungguh hebat.. elemen air mewujudkan ruang2, bukan ruang2 mewujudkan elemen air – tipikal landskap arkitek malaya hehehe
