Sesiones Arquetípicas (archetypical sessions)

Sesiones Arquetípicas (archetypical sessions) are urban fleeting explorations around architectural elements located in the territory, where the interaction between observer and observed object appears as an opportunity to think about the archetype. The participants (called fleeting inhabitants) are invited to answer a general question which is formed as a guideline on how to approach, through photographs, the visited place.

The archetypes studied were el muro (the wall), el vano (the hollow), el cielo (the ceiling), el suelo (the floor) and la piel (the skin). The first four archetypes were visits to architectural vestiges of the Octava región del Bío-Bío (Chile), concluding with an intervention in the landscape with the fifth session, la piel (the skin).

La Piel was an installation used as an opportunity to understand the multiple possibilities of a continuous body that adapts to the nature conditions of a place, and is created just to be there. Using only fabric, rope, stones and the force and direction of the wind, we construct something that is, we believe, an approach to understand the archetype of the skin in architecture.

The project was developed between 2016 - 2017 in Chile.
