There is a human tendency to create codes that regulate, define, or that can contain and limit the complexity of the world; there is a need to create systems and laws that give meaning to the universe. However, the closer we get, the more complex and elusive reality appears to us. There is always a fissure, a failure, a knowledge that cannot be achieved. My work represents this gap. It is a kind of organic crack, as if there were a universal order that we can barely understand.

Geometric language is still a kind of semantic path, a universal, cosmic metalanguage. Where it is the most present is in Islamic architecture, which manifests itself to the world in a deeply enigmatic way, with seemingly almost indecipherable geometries, as if they hid a hidden and sacred knowledge. This is why I wanted to transfer my research from the plane to the volume in the form of columns, an approach to this idea of architecture as a container and revealer of a culture or knowledge.
