Using a warehouse in Rua das Flores, Porto, we recreated the imagery of the galleries of curiosities and aberrations from the end of the XIX century. The space was organized according to an eclesiastic structure.

Ferns hanging from the ceiling, benches made from planks and brick, and a palm leaf arched over the sound-mixer, were used to to create a space of technological ritualization.
