Casa de sonho (2003)

Cortesía: Colecção Américo Marques, Lisboa

 

In Casa de sonho [Dream House], this connection is interpreted from a context based on the notion of project and projection: utopian project and dream projection. Here, the equivalence of house and car as two exponents of the dream of modern man is counterweighted with doubts about modernism’s promises for the future. And this reflection is not exempt from nostalgia about the unattainability of dreams and projects.
