La eternidad es reversible
Starting from the contrast between natural and built spaces, the transformation and mutation of natural and rural spaces, as well as the progressive annihilation of the borders that separate architecture and urbanism from natural enclaves, a work based on the natural-artificial contrast is proposed. This duality is approached through the concepts of ‘building to destroy’ and ‘the invisible processes of transformation, substitution and destruction’. To this end, an artistic installation is proposed in which a structure adaptable to the space in which it is placed and made up of metal profiles typical of the world of construction —props, scaffolding, beams, etc.—, and frames of different dimensions intervened on the inside, will articulate the space and contain the pictorial, sculptural and multimedia pieces. These pieces configure and modulate the structure. In this way an installation is created as a study that deals with the antimonumental and the invisible process of the construction of our dystopian remains, delving into the relationship between ruin and architecture and the layers, strata and components that constitute the ruin-present-future. To this end, we work experimentally and from multiple disciplines with the textures, surfaces and properties of stone, which symbolises the natural and occupied territory, and of materials of a constructive nature: iron, cement, concrete, plaster, rubble, brick... typical of modern architecture, generating a narrative through contrast, transformation and the amalgamation of elements.
