The Fluxes – 7th Lisbon Architecture Triennale exhibition explores the flows of materials, energy, and information that sustain humanity, forming one of the three axes of How heavy is a city?, the 7th edition of the Lisbon Architecture Triennale. The curatorial team, Territorial Agency (Ann-Sofi Rönnskog and John Palmesino), approaches the subject as a research project on the complex transformations of the city on a planetary scale.

The guided tours offer an opportunity to engage with diverse narratives that interpret the theme.
