The series Hostile Sites (2017-2020) proposes to reflect on architectural design, queer theory and different discursive practices linked to sexual identity, the mediatization of the body and self-referentiality. With Hostile Sites, I seek the spatialization of a discomfort, a discomfort that initially takes place subjectively, but does not take long to manifest itself in the public sphere; in my case, this discomfort becomes the driving force behind a destabilizing will for white, heterocentric and cisexual domination, through architecture and the production of images.
These unfurnished, unlikely spaces, at times uncomfortable, resist the functionality of modern and contemporary design; As in a museum or a neoclassical palace, objects are displayed for their intrinsic value rather than being used.
Through numerous citations to queer culture and contemporary thought, specifically to biopolitics and the theory of body technologies by Michel Foucault or the compendium on architecture and sexuality by Paul Preciado, these collages are intended to subvert and empower, I like to think of them as exercises self-liberating, like glimpses of a small counter-architecture.We want you to be 100% satisfied, however we understand that sometimes things do not fit like you had intended or that it may not look exactly like what you were envisioning.
