"CAGES"
2016 Alberto Favaro
Metal sculptures, wire net
Short Description
These cages were conceived as part of a research project exploring the concepts of confinement and spatial limitation.
At its core, architecture is the act of defining boundaries and assigning meaning to space.
The cages themselves seek to explore the restriction and hierarchization of space without assigning any particular meaning to it. They represent limitations as an end in themselves—architectural exercises in self-containment and self-satisfaction.
Through their paradoxical and often impractical forms, these works aim to reveal the inherent violence embedded in architecture’s fundamental drive to limit and control space.
