About The Work
This work, part of the series 'A Thousand Windows' explores the facades of buildings as infinite reticles of repetitive cells, which contain in them a unified relationship between humans and the world, or rather, a way of removing all individuality by converting humans into robots destined for monotonous work until their death. The uniformity of each cell is broken by the impulse of each inhabitant seeking to "personalize" their landscape. All this is subtracted by the facade of reflective windows that make it impossible to see inside. In turn, the only reflection realized is that of the surrounding environment.
