The Dominican bears the traces of faith, contemplation and collective ritual.
The Secular Chapel explores how that search takes new forms today. The exhibition brings together designers who develop objects, materials and narratives as contemporary vehicles of attention, desire and imagination.
Where chapels were once filled with icons and relics, this exhibition presents a collection of new artefacts. Not as objects of worship, but as invitations to reflect. Each work proposes its own system of values, a personal mythology or a possible future.
The exhibition positions design not as a solution, but as a cultural practice that generates meaning. Visitors are invited to pause on what still holds value today, on what connects us, and on the stories we choose to pass on.
The Secular Chapel is not a place of faith, but of attention.
