The Permanent Temporary
2026
Reclaimed and scraps wood
220 × 160 × 100 cm
The work presents a fragile, elevated structure assembled from remnants of different kinds of wood and supported by a system of slender, irregular elements. The variety of timbers, dimensions, and directions gives the structure the appearance of having emerged gradually through accumulation, improvisation, and adaptation, never reaching a final or resolved state.
Raised above the ground, the structure also evokes the image of a lifeguard tower: a place from which one can look into the distance, identify danger, and perhaps offer protection. Yet the structure itself remains exposed, improvised, and dependent on a precarious system of supports. This tension between a place intended to provide safety and its own need for support gives the image an inherent ambiguity.
The house ceases to function as a symbol of stability and security, becoming instead a temporary and ongoing condition, a space suspended between shelter and observation, protection and vulnerability, the threat of collapse and the insistence on remaining upright.
The work resonates with an urban and human reality in which stability is never given, but must be continually reconstructed through adaptation, balance, and multiple points of support.
