Community Project

Arquitectura cuerpo y paisaje – Estudiantes de arquitectura de la Red de universidades del Sureste, plantel de Puerto escondido
The objective of the workshop of the Italian artist Cristian Chironi; was to train through a series of relationships to the students, in the acceptance of himself and in comparison with others, his being in the world. In an open place where they were in contact
with different modes of expression and new linguistic devices; they were asked to rethink the structure of things.
The project comprised 4 meetings of various creative activities.
After a first session in which the general vision of the artist’s works exhibited, the participants were willing to have a creative approach. Being invited to exchange ideas, impressions, and experiences, discussing with each other and with the artist himself.
Casa Wabi environments are occupied by various types of interactions and experiments that allowed the workshop to flow as expected.
They invited them to participate in two projects that the artist had previously done, the first with the use of voice; the echo in the architecture of the exhibition hall and the observatory in Casa Wabi. Allowing students to explore the course and resonance of sound within a space.
The second, using the body and gestures, were able to communicate an architectural alphabet. Each of the participants was photographed posing some of the architectural elements found in the place: a roof, a brick, a nail, a door. The purpose of the workshop was to use the architecture of the house, the understanding of the course of time that distinguishes one moment from the other, the sound and the surrounding landscape, as appropriation of a being in the world. Appreciating each of the elements, allowed participants to become the landscape, architecture, etc.
