Community Project

Construcción – Comunidades de El venado y Agua Zarca
During their residency at Casa Wabi, the artists initiated a community project focused on local architecture and construction processes. In the first phase, an archival investigation, and field the research was carried out, which consisted of a photographic record and a methodological study on construction tools, materials, and methodologies, initiating a work process in conjunction with some artisans from El Venado and Zarca water. The research was raised about the understanding of architecture as a social object, registration of a process of miscegenation and cultural identity.
The conclusion of this project will happen in the second phase of residence that will take shape in a publication that will be distributed in the communities involved, as well as the installation of a sculptural result that will take place in both communities.
