Hundreds of windows make up the work of Cássio Vasconcellos, which has the dimensions and proportions of a building’s façade, a fantastic building that houses all these openings. Here, the windows have their role reversed, they insert us into the interior of the various units, which punctuate this image with graphic potential and a blue atmosphere with their lights. Although possible, especially in a large city like São Paulo, this image does not directly reference anything real. It is based on the visible, but it is a montage, a construction.
