ORSOLYA
The work proposed for DOM.ESTIC seeks answers to the question of what guides people when choosing a home/in the design process with an architect, what are the reasons that lead to certain decisions and not others, and what does living in today's society symbolize?
The installation places the desires, dreams, models that influence our decisions, alongside a symbolic scheme of homes, a fragile paper grid, composed of squares of the same size, which, like birdhouses, have entrances of different diameters, depending on the species for which the house was built. However, in addition to the message that is transmitted through the position of the home, materials used, architectural language, closure/opening, the question that underlies the work is what exactly do homes hide? If we think of them as a well-sealed bottle thrown into the sea, which contains an important message, a dream, a desire?
The two perpendicular planes represent two projections of the same reality: the physical space that delimits the life that happens between the walls, and the dream life/image of life that shapes the physical space.
The work was part of the exhibition DOM.ESTIC organised by BATRA 2025 in Cluj - Napoca
