Drawings of the Site
Looking at the site through the
lens of a dream, I see shapes, shadows, transparencies and shifting forms. If during a dream, the site
changes, what are these changes? The main structure is the same and remains a
constant, but the details are lost and the only thing you remember is the
overall sense of a colour scheme, a significant colour that either dominates
the composition or stands out more-here it is the vermilion red that pours out
from the center. During the dream, the site shifts, the pouring of the sand
takes its final form and becomes this red stream that cuts the composition in
the middle. Often, when dreaming, the sequence is lost or forgotten, but one
part of the dream remains engrained in the mind, here it is the way the site
looks at the end, a general feel of the colours, forms and textures and a
significant change in its main structure: the dominant red pile.
My dream of the site is that it
melts away, it becomes distorted in the process of the dream state, it
gradually changes. These changes are constant, but never return to its original
state. The more I dream, the more the site changes, melting away gradually,
changing colour, changing mood, forms shifting and moving slightly and finally
dissolving into its more basic elements: colour hues and keeping only one part
intact: the faraway windows on the building that can be viewed in the back.
