Daniel Wong, "{in}Visible Maintenance"
{in}Visible maintenance poses the question: What if the breakdown of a building could be chronographed as a fundamental element of everyday design? Imagine a shift where we prioritize celebrating the natural process of decay, favouring maintenance, cleaning, and repair over the current economic model of superficial environmental posturing.
Drawing provides an alternative vision between the speculative, the surreal, and the plausible—a resistance to our valuation of existing buildings. These drawings aim to reframe, shift, and provoke a new paradigm and aesthetic that celebrates and accepts what exists. Finding pleasure and discovery through the dilapidated, the strange, and the ordinary.
