This installation wants to show the process of the destruction, the progressive disappearance of the experiences and the remembrances from the people who are used to live in those places that don’t exist anymore.The testimonies from those persons invite us to travel through the past and show the daily that they used to know.DestruXioncalled the past and the ephemeral side from the cities that are just buried into the urban and human mass. It is like a tear, a wish to erase all those existences and those pieces of memory.DestruXiongive us the possibility to travel into the urban that are ready to disappear forever. When the architecture does not have a name, then she cans a face and a voice, she is incarnated not only in the materials but in the life she is constituted.Fragments and moments those are difficult to catch and to conserve.
