The world as an absurd theater.

Y vio Dios que era bueno (And God saw that it was good). Ironically, this phrase from Genesis might be the first quality certification in History. Now, we are experiencing a moment defined by a lack of fundamentals. There is no stable basis on which to build our reality. We are in free fall. This disorientation implies the loss of a fixed horizon and the advent of a new elevated point of view that provides a lucid panorama of the current problems.

Reproducing this hierarchical vision, the project conceives an adulterated space which acts as an amplifier of a world governed by commercial enterprises, where the democratic order has dissolved and society is in the grip of digital technologies.

By discarding the architectural elements and environmental references, the conventional relationships between space, time and the different elements that appear, are altered. We are in a place populated by tiny beings whose hollow shadows rush and unfold to a dimension in which we have lost our own will and our capacity for action. We live in a state of complete and utter confusion. Our existence is already a simulation that unfolds on a stage where normality gives way to the absurd, blurring the lines between reality and fiction.
