BRUNO CASTRO SANTOS | Derivation
“(the
drawings)
...carry,
from
architecture, some of their central
attributes, but here, they are subject to
subtle operations of neutralization and
attenuation - as is done with viruses, for
the production of vaccines. In other
words, precise relations can be
identified with the practice and design of
architecture, but it is as if they have
undergone irreversible mutations, and
are now mere cocoons that carry echoes
or phantoms of their original contents.”
