Jorge House
The groove
in the land packs the 6.5 m cube,
The
cantilever and the bridge link the two levels
Connecting
the street to the ancient tree in the backyard.
The
artist’s dwelling is discreet
Highlighting
art works and experiences in progress.
Metal is
visible, in the sculptures
In cuts,
bends, welds and paints
Scissors, brushes,
crayon, gas and fire
Characters
in a blend of home and workshop.
In an
industrial district of crude landscape
Among sheds,
trucks and highways
The house
is a small factory of beauties.
