2025 UP IN THE AIR 
PICNIC!

DOMM x CIVIL ARCHITECTURE

The air above Yerevan exists as a tentative condition, at times polluted, sometimes clear; clothes hang in lines across city blocks, like streamers celebrating no event in particular. As a public realm, the sky is both shared, occupied, and inhabited - it is where the city exhausts its metabolism, and where celebrations take place.

It is this notion of the sky as a shared condition that we propose ‘Picnic!’. The intervention is a nomadic public space occupying the protean skies above Yerevan. A tapestry, piloted by people who carry it across the main public spaces of Yerevan, acts as a peripatetic plaza circumnavigating the city center throughout the course of the LINE.

As an urban gesture, the intervention transforms from event, to shade, to urban traveler, to collective surface - allowing the sky to be an active participant throughout the duration of the biennale.
