Parklife 3 A new nowhere
Third issue of Parklife begins with a shift of perspective—a turning outward. Not toward a landscape of
memory or idealized escape, but toward the landscape as a question. A surface to be examined, unraveled, and
reassembled.
What does it mean to look outside—not just to see what is, but to imagine what might be formed from
its fragments?
A new nowhere unfolds in the space between perception and projection, where what we know begins to
blur into what we imagine. This “nowhere” is not defined by absence, but by possibility:
a terrain still forming, shaped by the quiet gestures of observing, questioning, and redrawing the edges of
the visible.
It becomes an act of definition—tentative, fragmentary, and open-ended. A constellation of images and
intuitions orbiting around something still unnamed. Here, the landscape is not framed to be admired, but to
be experienced, inhabited and continually reimagined.
A new nowhere imagines a world where the boundaries between nature, architecture, labor, and daily
life dissolve into a single, evolving fabric. A world where the external is not separate, but deeply
implicated in how we live and act.
The future, then, is not a fixed point ahead, but a soft and continuous unfolding of the present—a
movement shaped by how we choose to look and react. The contributions in this issue do not seek to explain
or define, but resonate like echoes of something that is still forming, just beyond our reach.
Each author traces a possible passage through the unknown—a fleeting geography shaped by visions still
shifting, still unsettled.
What takes form is not a fixed image, but a moving landscape, one that invites interpretation as much
as it resists it. In this space, to look is already to begin building—to construct meaning through
perception, to assemble a place from what is not yet fully there.

If we perceive the pause as an interruption of a flow, is this moment experienced with greater awareness
about the present?
The second issue of Parklife is dedicated to the concept of rest, highlighting how we experience
surrounding space while taking a break and, published once a year, is in continuity with the first,
delving into the concept of living in outer space.
Offering personal interpretations by 16 authors, the publication not only explores the nature of
interruption itself, but the different ways of awareness that arise during these moments.
Starting from the idea that a pause requires agility, the publication provides a new key about the
theme, exploring several facets and understandings related to pause, whether human or animal, temporary
or everlasting.
