Burried House (Dalles), 2013

Burried House (Dalles) The video Buried House, presents how a house buried by the artist ends up melting with the site on which it was built. The process consisted in burying the rests of a house after its demolition by using a digger. Once it was totally covered with soil, the house ended up in a small hill in the garden: a memorial carrying the house’s materials and holding the account of its disappearance. This project offer an opportunity for reflection on the transition and rebirth of old neighborhoods, creating a sort of memorial site that nonetheless retains the building’s actual substance and provides a ‘ free space’ for reflection on the neighborhood’s past, present and future
