On the other hand, its ductility is valued, capable of energizing, with a single device, the successive events that took place during the Biennial."
In its construction, reused materials and dry joining elements were used, that facilitate assembly and roaming, reducing material consumption and its ecological footprint.

Project description by Garbizu Collar Architects, KRI, and Diego Sologuren.
Rhizoma is a temporary exhibition framed within Mugak, Basque Country International Architecture. It is designed through an object that projects fictions about the demystification of the Caserío (Basque country farmhouse) and rural environments, aiming to rejuvenate this historical structure and tailor it for contemporary rural living.
The amorphous and totemic object is inserted inside the Chillida Leku Museum, attempting to mimic its century-old wooden knots in a failed mission. Instead of camouflaging itself in the space, the intruder ends up creating new stimulus and tension in the old structure of the farmhouse. This prototype reclaims the non-predefined form of the farmhouse, and advocates for reuse and self-sufficiency, embodying both the productive and the domestic aspects.
In its production, reused materials and dry-joint elements have been employed to facilitate assembly and potential itinerancy, minimizing the consumption of new materials and reducing its carbon footprint.
