Habitação

 

 

"Housing" is an unanimous human right. To own your own space on earth gives it a sense of belonging, security and liberty.

Due to the growing world population and massive migration to the big cities, housing has become a luxury good. 

Buyers go on crescent debts through loans and mortgages, with growing values.

To own a territory has become a burden. In "Housing", 21 glass blown pieces were installed from the roof. They seem to be floating, giving it the sensation of liberty and lightness. Nevertheless, the houses are chained, unable to move.

The glass was blown from inside its metal construction beam. It is over inflated, deformed, looking like it is going to explode at any moment. The Transparency transports the viewer inside the houses. He feels imprisoned.

The bubble is about to explode.
