Brief About The Project:
The research begins with a story of a man marked by the image of his deceased fiancée. I take R.T'. s one thousand fifty-five Facebook posts as one form of representation and seek a design process that deliberately re-presents the representation. The exploration intentionally blurs the boundaries between disciplines by assembling landscapes into an architecture monument; R.T.'s tombstone
It led me to abstract the relationships between architecture as a purveyor of an unseen space, the unconscious, and a body left in-between
The journey ends, only to begin again, leaving the prey, at pray
