The nature of emptiness

The nature of emptiness corresponds to an investigation on the unfinished spaces that are left in gentrified areas, buildings that because they are not inhabited are diminishing their physical conditions until their destruction, becoming vacant spaces or green lands that are left to their fate.

In the process of the project, more attention is paid to the green spaces that are born and their appropriation by the neighbors, many times taking those unbuilt lands and building them in squares or in some other common area. With this work I intend to reflect on the importance of these spaces of distraction and placidity and the effects of nature on the individual, but also on how cities, towns, villages, localities, etc. as they become increasingly urbanized, with the desire for greater connectivity and prosperity, are losing these green places and are becoming disconnected from nature, having to resort to creating artificial green areas to have welfare areas, becoming a series of destruction and construction. Thus, the work corresponds to three pieces that fictionalize environmental factors on natural elements, dialoguing between the green area that has to be rebuilt within a highly urbanized land and the vacant site where neighbors build common spaces with their own hands.
