Roca Gallery, Barcelona, Spain | 26 February 2026 | 19.00H
We invite you to the opening of The Architecture of Virtual Water on 26 February at 19.00H at Roca Barcelona Gallery. The evening will include a presentation by Benedetta Tagliabue, who will introduce the installation and the ideas shaping its experience.
Presented previously at the Venice Architecture Biennale, the project is the result of an interdisciplinary collaboration bringing together architecture (Benedetta Tagliabue EMBT Architects), science (Jampel Dell’Angelo), music (Yeshi Silvano Namkhai) and digital visual arts (Ati Sphere).
The installation offers a sensory journey into the hidden dimensions of water, understood not as visible flows or infrastructure, but as systems embedded within socio-environmental networks. Informed by scientific research and artistic experimentation, it invites reflection on the essential, yet often unseen role water plays in sustaining life and shaping contemporary societies.
Designed for disassembly and reuse, the installation embraces circular principles and continues its public journey beyond Venice, extending its engagement with audiences in Barcelona.
On view at Roca Gallery with free admission.
Open Monday to Friday, 10.00H – 19.00H.
