Melting Structures

Melting Structures is the final work that belongs to this trilogy. It concludes an analysis of the contemporary landscape from the last possible temporal perspective (past). This project analyses the ephemeral duration of contemporary constructions and categorizes the debris of demolished buildings, structural materials and single-use elements used to construct, as contemporary ruins.

The context of the construction site is formulated as an archaeological site. Where there is no differentiation between the remains of the buildings and the new materials with which they are constructed. This debris will be recycled and then used again in new constructions. The temporal-historical direction is absorbed by an infinite process of recovery, reformulation and post-use. The contemporary ruins are a sedimentary mass in constant transformation and belong to a perpetual present.
