the pattern is the result of cooking glass too long - we considered it a rusticated glass pattern…

aperture & influence

fisker artega gt

The elevational surface of the artega gt aligns itself as knowing other geometries that are emerging from current architectural discourse (or work thereof): it’s eye-like aperture on the side is similar to the ornamental moves recently employed by Esquivel in his La Riviera renovation geometries (theoremas blog link):

At this point I contend that there are words/articulation needed to fully distinguish one aperture from another (as others certainly exist) wholly in and of itself, and not of a metaphorical rhetoric).

There is a specific move, where void makes a line, a delineation, about a surface, then invades or moves through the surface creating sub-surface expressed geometries in its wake; a moving void. In the same way there seems to be a movement about Esquivel’s work that entertains void objects about a surface, causing influences while not (in a similar move) ripping or destroying it’s plasticity.

Both discuss beauty in the most indiscrete way…perhaps this denies any true articulation to exist: they both leave the subject breathless.
