About the Book
The ‘ UTOPIA / DYSTOPIA’ series concerns all those ‘place-less’ loci, idealistic or horrific (aesthetically or emotionally) detached from time, often fragmentary and incomplete , dismantled like a theatrical set of a completed play and almost always geometrical. Essentially, they are all these ordinary and familiar places surrounding me, that reveal my anxiety about Chaos and Order.
