Palimpsest
Sculpture
Year 2026
Materials: Wood
In my work, I'm always interested in ruins, the idea of historical layers, architectural remains, and strata of civilization. Superimposition, repetition, the matter that persists, and the voids/shadows as places of possibility and rebirth. Civilizations rise and crumble in layers.
Layers that don't entirely disappear, but remain inscribed in the material. Architectural remains, discarded fragments, traces of a time that insists on remaining. In these structures, wood is superimposed, evoking walls, beams, foundations. As if they were strata of history, where each line is a testament. I'm interested in what remains, but also in what is missing. The voids, the gaps, the cracks, the shadows that appear, the transformation of landscapes. In that void that isn't truly empty, dwells the possibility of the new, the place from which what doesn't yet exist can re-emerge.
The projected shadows are part of the work. They depict a parallel, ephemeral architecture that shifts with the light. Another layer added to the others, a reminder of what is not matter, but is nonetheless reality. Thus, these pieces are a palimpsest: a territory where nothing is completely erased, but rather transformed and accumulated. History as an open weave, where matter persists and voids await.
