Sketch For a Village, 2014

The work describes the intimate process of demurring, a moment of hard check in the development of an artistic project. In the context of a first encounter with an urban development zone in Guangzhou, China, where rapid acceleration of reshaping threatens grown and functioning social structures, the idea of hesitation enfolds the possibility to return from fantasies of the future into the present and to adapt the projection that came apart at the seams back to the feelings of the people who’s everyday reality it changes.
