Maqueta para un lugar que no existe: Seven Artists Explore Architectural Models at Proyecto Reme, Madrid
At La Caja in Madrid, Proyecto Reme unveils 'Maqueta para un lugar que no existe,' which investigates the concept of space through the artistic interpretations of seven creators. The artists include Hock (sculpture and architecture), Szymanski (painting as a tectonic body), Cortright (digital components), Badia (ambiguous scenes), González (repetition and composition), Leal (assemblage), and Felton (gesture to sign). This installation blends real and imaginary aspects, using models as symbols for cognitive frameworks. The exhibition is designed to evolve and transform, inviting viewers to engage mentally. It opens with an inquiry into how spaces are imagined prior to their actualization, featuring provisional elements and incomplete forms within a real-time observational framework.
