Rolando Jacob
– Casa Wabi 2024
Community Project
A series of meetings were held with students from the Bajos de Chila High School, aiming to foster dialogue, reflection, and artistic exploration of the built environment. “Common Space” involved developing, designing, and building a three-dimensional meeting space in response to the questions: How do we connect with the built environment? And what shape does the encounter take?

Rolando Jacob’s work, influenced by his background as an architect, constantly reflects on the relationship between human beings and their built environment. He typically employs drawing, painting, installation, and the creation of atmospheres to try to highlight the relationships between constructed objects, conflict, and memory. Referring to modernity from the periphery and to the architectural utopias of the 20th century, Jacob’s installations materialize, through the distortion of form, the contradictions present in hegemonic narratives.
