That’s what can be seen right after Belchatow on the way to Warsaw: a mighty stack of scaffolding. What is the function for that? I don’t know – I passed by this structure 4 times during the past 2 months and each time it was just proudly standing there, neither growing up nor being dismantled, with nothing happening on or within it, with a crane aligned beautifully. The temporary that was given permanence.
Intangibility, blurring of the edges, mesmerizing repetition, unusual depth and apparent fragility of the elements – how often do we achieve those in architecture?
