The Manifesto
It is about the structural dissolution of an abandoned interior space. The red armchair, located in the center of the composition, contrasts with the destruction around it, determining the viewer's focus. When the scattered structure of the space is taken together with the spilled walls and fragmented floor elements, it creates an open ground for thinking about the relationship between structure and function. The destruction is a narrative, the armchair is like a spectator here. Silent, motionless, but in the center.
