Viagem a outro oriente - por entre lugares de silêncio, um mapa
| Resumo: | 'Journey to another East' aims to leverage travelling in order to understand architecture, the world and life. We consider that travelling is to wander over the planet while observing it critically, which makes it a potential operational instrument at Architecture's service. To travel is crucial for the development of a mental map full of images, which's most valuable and direct sources are those that architecture, when in action, provides to our senses. It is based on this subconscious map, that we explore the themes and the steps taken by some of the travelling masters, in a way to understand their journey experience as a transformative engine of their thought process. The construction of this narrative is ruled by a structure that sits on what we consider the main pillars inseparable to travelling: - the departure, the journey and the return. It is under this argument that we try to challenge the understanding of the different spaces visited throughout our own journey. By revisiting them with different lenses we are allowing ourselves to create meaning in spaces of silence - spaces where we are given the opportunity to embrace multiple journeys inside the journey itself. |
