PROGRESS at the time space existence

  • We are deeply honored to have been invited to the Time Space Existence within the Frame of the Venice Biennale; participating in such an event has been a major milestone and an unbelievable opportunity. We can’t thank enough all the people who have trusted us for all these years, our team, and our families. We also want to specially thank Juan Pablo Pemberty-Jimenez, Julian Duque, and the wonderful people at Konkretus whose unconditional support helped us get here.

    Welcome to PROGRESS.

    F05’s piece proposes a redefinition of the urban space of Medellín, a city that, in recent years, has become the epicenter of a tourist exchange that has altered the social, political, and cultural values ​​that have always defined it.

    Conceptually, the work encompasses a geographical reorganization of the city, a reconciliation with its surroundings, where urban harmony prevails, reflecting these values.

    From left to right, the work is composed of two halves on a photograph of the map of the Aburrá Valley. In the first, cement blocks arranged chaotically and held in place by metal beams offer a critical look at the city’s current architectural development. In the second, the blocks begin to organize themselves to find balance, freeing themselves from the beams and establishing a harmonious dialogue with Medellín’s landscape.
