Works by Caitlin Masley refer to the concept of hybrid architecture and critical study of urban spaces. They represent “delirious mutations”, as redefined structures of architecture in continuous growth. Neo Habitat, a hanging construction, architectural-sculptural object is a visual survey of organic expansion, an installation that reconstructs and reshapes different fragments of architecture. Details and fragments are repeated and remodeled, until distinctive elements of architecture convert into an abstract structure that expands in space like an explosion.
Works by Marko Tadic are shaped at the crossroads between drawings, collage, appropriated, found photographs and are determined by an interest for archive, architectural research and changes in urban environment. Employing different materials and gestures, repeated transformations of the image, with empty background the artist is creating constructed narratives between the known and the unknown, stressing possibilities of reinterpretation and the relation to the past. Mapping non-places whose questionable presence floats between nowhere and everywhere.
In different ways works by Caitlin Masley and Marko Tadic relate to the idea of architecture. They examine the discourses of modernism, research contexts of local environment, models of architectural representation, transformation and artistic imagination.
