Suspended in the vastness, Ciudad Máquina No.23 floats like a living entity, trapped between the remnants of a glorious past and the uncertainty of the future. Its structure, reminiscent of a cathedral uprooted from the earth, seems to balance precariously, held together by invisible threads that disappear into the void.
The architectural details evoke the memory of a world where the sacred and the mechanical fused into one. Yet, the corrosion at its base and the asymmetry of its extensions suggest that it is no longer a functional city but rather the fossil of a system that once had purpose. Below, a small vessel orbits in an erratic trajectory, as if searching for answers in the fragments of what was once its home.
The flowing lines that traverse the composition are not just strokes; they are traces of movement, witnesses of a journey with no final destination. In this universe, where the city floats unanchored and the wandering vessel fails to find its place, the idea of permanence dissolves, leaving only questions: is this an escape or an imposed exile? Is the city a ruin or the beginning of a new civilization suspended in time?
Inspired by La Parábola, this piece reflects the human condition: always in transit, always seeking meaning in structures that, like us, are doomed to drift.
Where Could This Work Be Exhibited?
Ciudad Máquina No.23 is ideal for spaces where philosophical exploration and dystopian aesthetics spark dialogue. Collectors of conceptual and visionary art will find in this piece a metaphor for the wandering existence, the connection between memory and the void.
For an interior designer, this piece could stand out in a contemporary art gallery, an architecture studio, or the library of a science fiction enthusiast and metaphysical explorer. It would also fit into a space where art invites contemplation and challenges the viewer to question what it truly means to inhabit a place in the universe.
This is not just a floating city. It is a question suspended in time.
