Cookie cutter:
The labyrinthine idea here is to present three architects who have
marked the modernist period with three of their major buildings and
three texts about their work but all mixed up by the cookie cutter.
The viewer has to study the three prints to get the idea.
The library of Babylon: The
idea is similar to the cookie cutter series. The prints present two
partial but complementary images, provoking the viewer to make links
in order to understand the content. The correspondence is only
partial; it has omissions, distortions and transfigurations. The title
is taken from a short story by Jorge Luis Borges, describing a
labyrinthine place where all
books about all books are present so that it becomes virtually
impossible to get any information
Train labyrinth with ladders:
Labyrinths in history have established forms.
This is a new fun kind of labyrinth drawing combining artifacts of
horizontal and vertical dimensions, that is, the train tracks and the
ladders
Urban image: A highly stylized
spatial image with urban nocturnal overtones
