Obsesiones personales. Miradas acerca de la arquitectura, la ciudad, en un sentido amplio de la palabra.
A continuación un breve diagnóstico de cada una de estas obsesiones que me acompañan.
Apropiación: ”Acción y resultado de tomar para sí una cosa haciéndose dueño de ella.” Acciones que consiguen a través de dotar de un uso no programado un objeto o espacio, apropiarse de él.
Sociedad anónima: “Que se forma por acciones, con responsabilidad circunscrita al capital que representan”. Reflejo de estas sociedades, enjambres y colmenas formados por infinidad de individuos que desaparecen al formar parte de una colectividad. La arquitectura como anuladora de la individualidad.

On 2 July 2011 the walls of more than 20 cities all around the world became outdoor art galleries thanks to Wallpeople, a collaborative art project. Started in Barcellona (Spain), the event leads people to set up with their photos a unique and collective exhibition in a certain urban place. The objective is to promote art in public spaces as a tool for social interaction among citizens.

All Natural Graffiti
Unlike spray paint, moss graffiti is all natural and healthy to work with. You can paint words or images, and the moss fills in like magic! It’s easy as pie to whip up a batch of moss paint.
Here’s how, in your blender, combine:
- One can of cheap beer or 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- A few handfuls of moss
- One teaspoon of sugar
Blend until the mixture is smooth, and you’re ready to get painting! You can use a brush to paint your moss onto concrete walls, rocks, or brick. Mist the moss once a day to help it thrive, and soon your green graffiti will take hold! If you’re looking to take this project to the streets, use caution- we don’t want to be responsible for any vandalism charges!

When Papiers Gaspesia, the long established pulp and paper mill of Chandler (Canada), closed in 1999, the little village lived a radical social and economic change. The project Gaspesia: les portraits en papier by Dan Bergeron marks the industrial remains with large-scale images of the former workers, as a public permanent memorial of the history of the mill.
