Project carried out during the traveling master's program I attended in my final years at the university. My group and I were asked to set up three rooms inside the James Simon Gallery of the Neues Museum, restored by David Chipperfield. The theme chosen was Egyptomania. We designed the exhibit through a narrative that would justify the succession of objects displayed in the rooms. Present in the collection were numerous scarabs only a few centimeters in size. I had the idea of creating a small city of hierarchical towers above which we placed the scarabs.
