Abstract

The present thesis is entitled The light in the activation of the memory of disappeared architectures. A study of artistic devices for its reconstruction. Throughout my artistic research I have always been interested in reconstructing the memory of architectures that have been lost. I work with concepts such as space, light, time and memory. I am interested in natural light as an element that tells us about the passage of time and connects us with the movements of the universe via the Earths rotation. Therefore, it is through the recreation of the light atmospheres of buildings that no longer exist that I approach the reconstruction of their memory. The main objective of e is the study of artistic devices of emotional affects where the concepts I work with, and mentioned above, reconstruct the light atmospheres of buildings that no longer exist in order to activate their memory. The hypothesis is that 3D technologies are suitable for constructing artistic devices that reconstruct the memory of disappeared architectures. Using a methodology based on artistic research, five case studies are analyzed: Resistencias, Memoria de un espacio, Villa Betania, El mercado de Olavide and La pagoda de Fisac. These, in turn, create a dialogue, through a methodology of comparative analysis, with different theorists who have served to contextualize this study and as a theoretical approach to the relationship between memory and architecture, a fundamental aspect of this thesis...
