The processes of construction and destruction in search of an ideal city, lead to transformations in the social, political, economic and cultural fields. The architectural contrasts of a city allow us to investigate about the relationships that the inhabitants have with the place where they live.
It is in architecture where I allow myself to expand this focal spectrum, to explore this way, the city where it is built. This organic space of encounters and disagreements in which, with a careful look, we can discover our idiosyncrasies, memories of a past that lasts in the form of vestiges, remains and abandoned objects.
