Architecture is the body of a place—it directs the use, the possible pathways, the flows through which information, light, air and communication will pass; it metabolises what happens inside.’
Site specificity and architectural interventions form the nucleus of the Brazilian artist Renata Lucas’s work. These interventions mostly consist of minimal displacements of architecture that play on perception in such a way that one could almost pass by without noticing them.
Constructed on site, or in public space and then integrated into everyday life, these architectural interventions rely on a participatory element for the experience as a whole to work to its full potential.
