This project explores the link between architecture and memory. It is a set of architectural interventions surrounding the ruins of the previous sanatorium for mentally ill Jews in Otwock. The project aims to rehabilitate the absent memory of the exterminated community by seeking inspiration in rituals and materiality connected with processes of healing, that due to the strict connection with body and atmospheres, might enable users to create new memories of the place.
