utopia / nest
 

Museum Casa das rosas - Sao Paulo, brazil 1996,

​

Having always been curious about the Geodesic Dome, I asked Buckminster Fuller during a spontaneous encounter in 1980, from where the idea originated. 

​

“I started with a bird’s nest and went to the cosmic space,” he said.

​

 The fire was lit.

​

“The earth is a uterus,” he continued, “opening the concept of the holistic to an immediate realization.” 

​

His striking words remained with me for many years until they finally, once revisited, gave birth to a manifestation of Fuller’s words altered by time. Today we live in a regressive utopia. Today the nest is a uterus that cuts.
