Moving with the Wind, Like Waves

Moving with the Wind, Like Waves is a contemporary art project set within the Inquisitor’s Palace in Birgu, designed to initiate a dialogue with the building’s rich, layered history.

Commissioned by Bank of Valletta and developed by curator Elyse Tonna, the project invited artists to create site-specific, process-based works that engage with the Inquisitor’s Palace by exploring themes that are often unseen, undocumented, or unspoken.

The project’s graphic language draws inspiration from the numerous alterations and irregular layout of the Inquisitor’s Palace. These fluid forms serve a dual purpose: they represent the main initials: M (Moving), W (Wind), and W (Waves) and correspond to the three overarching chapters of the curatorial concept. Each form is dynamic, continuously morphing and shifting into a new iteration. 

From these three core fluid shapes, six additional shapes are generated, resulting in a total of nine forms, which corresponds to the number of sub-thematics of the project.
