Energy at MAXXI

TERROIR blev inviteret af Senior Curator of Architecture på MAXXI i Rom, Pippo Ciorra til at deltage i udstillingen Energy: Oil and Post Oil, i 2013,

Udstillingen består af tre dele. To af disse vedrører fotografisk dokumentation af tankstationer i fortiden og nutiden, mens den tredje komponent indeholder fremtidssyn fra syv internationale arkitekter. TERROIR er en del af en berømt gruppe, der inkluderer Sou Fujimoto, Noero Architects, MODUS og Lifethings.

TERROIRs projekt udforsker usikkerheden omkring post-olie-æraen og foreslår en momumental arkitektur for en æra med bæredygtig energi. Vores forslag antyder, at Australiens motorveje er forbundet som et kæmpe energidistributionssystem, hvilket resulterer i en række "brændstofstationer" inspireret af jugoslaviske krigsmomenter i sovjetiden og den australske film Mad Max.

"George and I wrote the script (to Mad Max) based on the thesis that people would do almost anything to keep vehicles moving and the assumption that nations would not consider the huge costs of providing infrastructure for alternative energy until it was too late."

James McAuslandScriptwriter, Mad Max

Thinking of the abundant post-oil energy sources available on the Australian continent, we completed an analysis of what energy sources were available where. This led us to a series of sources that were not just sources of power (solar, wave, hydro) but that were specifically sited - in the desert, the mountains, the sea. The design of the subsequent monuments was a meditation on the intersection between the technical requirements of each form of power generation and the potential to relate each poetically to its site. Against the backdrop of stasis in Australia regarding the transition to a post-carbon future, the projects became monuments to a future we may not have.
