Vertical Manifesto

A library conceived as a permanent construction site.

In raw copper, punctuated by irregular compartments,
it rests on two exposed concrete pillars —
like unfinished scaffolding.

 

This is no accident. It is a gesture.

A gesture that affirms knowledge is always under construction.


A gesture that confronts refinement with raw matter.


A gesture that creates a taut dialogue
between tradition, structure and poetic chaos.

At once library, sculpture and interior manifesto,
this piece speaks to a cultivated audience —
those who choose depth over conformity,
and presence over display.
