Idles


Idles


Concurrently leftovers and newborns, idles await to be transformed
File under

Idles are spaces of influence set in recycled landscapes like sand dunes, deserts, forests or coasts. The subjects of the images are fundamental to our spatial culture like walls, gates, borders, columns, erosion, thresholds, surfaces. Given the context, these typologies are timidly telling and seem to be at the limits of their function, their ability to communicate, interrupted because of an apparent structural crisis. They’re leftovers and newborns, ambiguous because silently awaiting to be transformed. Though apocalyptic and abstract, the images are inspired by the shock-waves that global migration and virtual realities are giving to spatial disciplines and the subsequent questions they have raised about spatial belonging, our bodies and space as a physical and narrative entity.
