Between Materiality and Illusion, this piece explores the language of architectural drawing and the world of construction: dimensions, structures, materials, and technical indications. Through these representations, embracing the beauty of the raw and the ordinary, imagining different fictional layers within an unfinished architecture. Elements such as exposed insulation panels, fictional scaffolding, metal reinforcements, and partially (de)constructed walls are simulated throughout the work.This approach creates an ambiguous visual effect that deconstructs the appearance of the architecture or the surface behind the artwork, revealing its fragility and exposing the illusion of an unfinished construction. An intentional ambiguity between art and materiality, (in)perfection and (de)construction, is established.
The work draws on Brutalist principles, embracing raw and unfinished materials. Through the trompe-l’œil, a functional and unembellished beauty emerges, where incompletion becomes an aesthetic quality in itself.
