EXTIMACY

The term “extimacy” refers primarily to the presence of exteriority in the intimacy, or deepest interiority, of the subject, and secondarily to the resultant non-distinction and identity of the exterior and the intimate or most interior.

ARGUMENT

TRYPTICA accomodates a society in which meaning and reality are not substantiated but are relational.

A city that unveils the trifold relation of the peering self, its alter ego and the desired double to become. These entities revolve around in pursuit of reflection and revelation.

The inhabitants are at the same time spectators as well as the actors and legislators of the city. They devour the city in its totality, process its complexity and get lost in its leisure and abundant growth.

Architecture is not simply a platform that accommodates the viewing subject. It is a viewing mechanism that produces the subject. It precedes and frames the occupant.

In those years… I began to understand that the goal of psychic development is the self. There is no linear evolution; there is only the circumambulation of the self.
