Constantly Failing
Claustro CCC del Carme, Valencia

Most projects aim to establish themselves within the historical narrative's timeline. It points to what crumbles, which doesn’t need research or much of a budget. When we speak of the popular, we may be touching what escapes us in these lives organized towards competition and constant self-promotion. This failure goes elsewhere, not as a space of resolution, but as a permanent conflict where the action is pure failure; it doesn’t work, it doesn’t last.

François Lyotard, The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge, 1979.
