Moving Layers — a partyful device
Trienal de Arquitectura de Lisboa, PT




why is that people don’t dance in the streets today?* / Christopher Alexander wrote about that in A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction, his famous book from 1977 /

The revolution of Adolphe Appia, a
pioneer of modern theater staging and lighting techniques, was based on providing
scenic space with three-dimensional characteristics and controlled lighting.
This way, he aimed to replace the two-dimension background of classical theater
with a volumetric and traversable one that will connect the actor with the
scene Moving Layers works with the same principle Appia used to create a revolution
for the spatial experience: walking the path between two-dimensionality and
three-dimensionality.
Moving Layers is an artifact that represents movement in 4
layers; image, sculpture, video, and celebration, that aims to creating
awareness about different mobilities in the contemporary city.
