 Igor Kochovski Airport The University of Auckland, New Zealand 1999, 6' This work is an exploration of a space that can exist only as a surrogate of time and temporal processes. In the complex of the parameters that define life and contemporary architecture, the video reflects on this hypothesis in the context of the airport. The idea of "other spaces" contemplated by Michel Foucault in 1986 and the notion of space as an unfathomable reality or comprehensible only through diverse cognitive factors, invites us to consider space as determined by factors that exist in the margins of human experience. The airport has always been a reality in which the complexity of functions and the constant attempt to hide its fundamental operative and spatial logic create a perception of non-place in the visitor. An airport creates an experience of a multiplication of spaces in time (the journey) in that it challenges the idea of physical grounding necessary to perceive space as stationary or static. For this reason, this project strives to define and describe space in purely temporal terms while imposing an idea of absolute form of experience. Igor Kochovshi, born in Macedonia in 1976, graduated from St. Kliment Ohridski and currently lives in New Zealand where he is completing his studies in architecture at the School of Architecture and Fine Arts. |
