This text-based research essay describes the outcomes of a design-driven experiment that attempted to unpack the hidden potential of <em>Carceri</em> in the domain of architectural representation. The aim was to analyse Piranesi’s oeuvre from a new curatorial perspective, as well as propose a further speculative step in the hermeneutics of <em>Carceri</em>. In our experiments, the <em>Carceri</em> was understood as a temporary aggregate of heterogeneous materials capable of establishing a metaphorical link with architectural objects at different scales.</p>}, number={01}, journal={idea journal}, author={Dutto, Andrea Alberto and Fedorchenko, Maria}, year={2022}, month={Oct.}, pages={33–57} }
