An interrupted continuity
Abstract
Philosophy of drawing.
The main theme of this project was to find a non conventional way of representing a masterpiece of architecture - The Chapel of the Tomba Brion at the Altivole Cemetery in the Provence of Treviso, Italy, a project by Carlo Scarpa.
I found two topics to be represented: "The imperfect ideal" and "An Interrupted continuity".

THE IMPERFECT IDEAL
Symmetry.
Equilibrium.
Harmony between the parties.
At the same time there is a lack of direct correspondence.
Two opposing concepts coexist perfectly.
Everything is completed.
It coexists.
It stays.
AN INTERRUPTED CONTINUITY
Rectangle
Geometric figure characterized by right angles.
Circle
The exact opposite.
A fluid figure, as if it came from nature.
Edges are combined with curved lines.
They are made up. They form a whole. They tell something.
They become a portal. The entrance, a point of passage.
But the circle is particular. It is interrupted.
As if it sank underground and its junction was invisible.
A part is hidden but the circle always maintains its identity.
It is unmatched. Perfect despite everything.
