(…) For many years I have been trying to build a model of a city. With the process of my drawings and photographs of architectural spaces and all my public interventions in buildings my next step was logically to try to model a city. But on the other hand, I never wanted to make a city model in the traditional sense.<\/span><\/p>

In this case I come back once again to the Asian aesthetic. It is the model of a city built with rice paper lamps. At the same time, they are posed as a game between fiction and reality that tries to elucidate the extent to which it is possible to substitute certain statutes and ways of relating to this reality. Our bond with the city and the places we visit every day is limited by the use and exhaustion of their meanings. The history of cities is always hidden from us in the lines of their own everyday life, like an invisible fabric of which we know everything, but we know nothing, even when we have it in front of our eyes.
