The
following series features wireframe drawings—one of the most recent, most
bizarre, and least viewer-friendly tools at our disposal. An x-rayed skeleton
set against a black background, echoing the experiments of Japanese architects
Kazuo Shinohara and Itsuko Hasegawa, but also Jacques Hondelatte, Peter
Eisenman, and others. A simultaneous depiction of all the elements present in a
project. A chaos of lines and hatches. A chaos that demands to be deciphered by
the viewer.
The selected drawings are fragile skeletons built out of lines and surfaces. Each belongs to a different project and a different moment in time: some finished, some under construction, others about to be built. They are snapshots reflecting on different aspects—interior perspectives, overlaid façades, bird’s-eye views of sorts. Printed on semi-transparent paper and mounted in light boxes, the drawings can be seen as if on a computer screen, where they somehow belong. The lamp highlights the white skeleton, the opaque hatches, activating both chaos and order. They are at once precise and surreal: very close to the idea of the project, yet quite far from actual building matter.
