White sculptures
With the series „White sculptures“ I explore the flexible
boundary between architecture and sculpture in Calatrava’s
unique architectural language. His buildings in the Ciudad de las
Artes y de las Ciencias (City of Arts and Sciences) appear like
vivid corporeal objects, which contain filigree but strictly
systematic structures. My intention with this image sequence is
to carve out the dynamics of the stylistic vocabulary in his lively
ensemble of buildings. As a photographer I am fascinated by the
overlapping of sculptural and architectural elements in
Calatrava’s oeuvre, as they seem to complement each other and
even merge to a harmonic unity. In particular with the effect of
sunlight, the buildings appear like being arranged in a light-
space installation.
