pezo von ellrichshausen architects at venice architecture biennale 2010
'detached' installation
image © designboom
'detached' by chilean pezo von ellrichshausen architects is an installation that concerns itself
with two similarly sized buildings located in two different context. a light gray concrete piece
rests in the middle of a natural scene. a copper oxide green concrete prism stands in the middle
of a suburban setting. two opposite conditions are presented by a disproportionate relationship
between figure and background. the proposed constructions are reproduced as small sculptural
models. the landscape is recorded in a huge panoramic backlight photograph. the objects, autonomous
from their location, seem insignificant in front of the monumental effort of trying to capture most of
the details and complexities of the surroundings.
