Architectural
language generally responds to the needs of the prevailing temporal
power, understood in this case as political systems. These sets vary
their role and importance over time depending on the evolution of each
nation. In general, past and present systems have created different
forms of architecture according to an ideological validation, the
socialist system that polarized the world was not exempt from this
pattern. it is a human need, to express ways of thinking in concrete
facts and to leave traces, although sometimes these traces are lost,
according to the interests imposed by the new times.
We know the need
for change and the immediacy with which contemporary societies move,
that constant consumption of new paradigms drives to replace the old
spaces that fill other areas of historical memory. The transformation of
society goes hand in hand with the transformation of a country's image,
and old projects are marginalized and even forgotten for representing
failed projects in some cases. Fallen Suns positions the viewer in front
of a kind of "window" with the negative form of a lattice, where ruined
urban landscapes of different societies are discovered.
