SUMMARY:Meliora by Atelier Sisu (CIAF)
LOCATION:425 S Tryon St Charlotte, NC 28202
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Meliora, the Latin noun meaning ‘better things’ or for the pursuit of the b
 etter.<br /><br />Meliora is a temporary public art-chitecture. It exists a
 s a space of reflection, immersion and joy for its audience. It is an abstr
 act representation of how the global community has the power to come togeth
 er to cooperate in times of need and is making its world premiere at Enligh
 ten 2025.<br /><br />The world is at the precipice of change. This change c
 an be felt from all directions, from climatic influences, political feuds, 
 economic fluctuations and social pressures.<br /><br />As a global communit
 y of humans, we throw ourselves into this convergence of change with a feel
 ing of resilience, determination and hope.<br /><br />Art plays an importan
 t role in enriching the everyday life. Amongst so much seemly chaos, it is 
 important now, more than ever to find joy in the everyday, to find moments 
 of wonder that excite our inherent curiosity.<br /><br />The form is define
 d by interwoven curves, connecting and converging in the centre of the form
 , creating a vaulted moment of negative space for the audience to traverse 
 through and under.<br /><br />The intertwined curves create vast apertures 
 of negative space. These windows represent metaphorical windows into altern
 ative perspectives, representing and encouraging empathy and care towards o
 ur fellow humans.<br />
