Galería Íntima, a library of personal worlds

Field notes

Participants receive a 45 × 30 × 35 cm shelf intended for roughly 15–20 books, with room for objects, handwritten notes, or photographs. The curator assigns each shelf’s position as part of the overall visitor route, and owners may change the contents. Visitors can read, converse, borrow a book briefly, and leave their name in a shelf’s reading record. The project says the local space will be reserved once 75 of 130 planned shelves have owners.
