The city is always an anachronistic home for the newcomer. Its built ecosystem reveals disparate forms that reflect the narrative of the time. Thus, demiurges, circumscribed to their formal ontology, dream the bodies.

 

The new is a hybrid and multifaceted being that emerges in a conflicting scenario. The multifamily ancestry is numerous and determines the altimetric scale, but it is the small and old being that wistfully defines its expressions, and, in this way, avoids its disappearance in time, if not physical, at least memorial. Its body members are an apology for poor relatives, the forgettable industrial bastards with a fragile umbilical cord that connects them to their urban mother. Their connection, however, is strengthened and replicated, lighting the way on the one hand, and countering its apparent uselessness on the other hand.

The inexorable telluric circumstances are apprehended in the necessary functional mechanics, in a general configuration whose purpose is a kind of metaphysical harmony amplified by the geometric-spatial gnosis. The arithmetical ingeniosity, fed by the territory genetic code, overlaps the beauty of the congenital scribble, the intuitive organicity of nature's design. The morose and atrocious tenacity of a frowning face reappears in the splendour of a geometric smile that does not hide its process. On the contrary, it is assumed as a seed of its alacrity.

The form is consequent; action on a problem that determines a new problem and a new answer, in a cascade of decisions that, despite coming from the rational, look ascetically defined. Determination is an immersive, one-way journey between scales and space; the tangle of information is embodied in an organism where the program descends from the facade and the threshold is the grandchild of the implantation; All the components are part of the inextricable constructive machine that connects them to the future, in an experimental melody that separates itself from the fainthearted conformation of ease.
