video HD, 08:55, with sound


“Construction” describes the development of a film and architectural space unveiling its form, structure, potential and purpose. Narration is determined as a combination of scenes within a certain timeline. However it my be also viewed as a spatial arrangement of rooms in a building. All elements presented in the video are the ones that can be changed, moved, copied or translated.
The unnamed building featured in the film is the Province Office building in Opole (Poland). It is perceived to be an outstanding example of modernist architecture in the region - it was built in 1930s in the exact same location as demolished medieval Piast Castle.


In the moment of being designed, the building is a lie.
When the designer is drawing lines that represent the dimensions of a room, there is another building standing there.
