A DRAWING OF A BUILDING IN REAL SPACE / PRAGUE, 2013

THE BOOK OF TOWERS
AN ARCHITECTURE ZINE COLLABORATION
Death, divinity, power, sexuality, transcendence. Milestones. This project is about towers, not as much as a fixed typological or geometrical relation between height and base as the evocations this archetype can produce. This will be an exploration on the narrative and the image of the tower.

PINA BAUSCH MEETS STEVEN HOLL VIA BETONBABE
SCENE FROM DIE KLAGE DER KAISERIN (THE COMPLAINT OF AN EMPRESS, 1989) COLLAGED INTO STEVEN HOLL’S STRETTO HOUSE (1991), 2012
“The hyper-stimulation of the body transforms an optically oriented space into a space where the body is slowed down in order to sharpen the contrast between the directionality of the space and the actual bodily effort to move in that direction. A vanishing point is thus transformed into a distant, slow, muffled, and earthy vanishing point.”
