The theme Alternative Archive created a space to ponder on the architect of archiving. It is often observed that knowledge and history are constantly edited by new discoveries or revelations. It would appear that archives must evolve and take on an organic approach, living and breathing through the ages.
 
For this work, the process assumes the life of an Archive : the process of searching and labour-intensive constructions, the will to endure time, the passion for fine details and the courage to adapt.
