"Architecture Fragments" is a project made by the architecture studio Marià Castelló, which works from the analysis of Architecture located on the island of Formentera.
The exhibition shows a relationship between different plastic arts, especially drawing, photography, painting, sculpture, and architecture. This by a series of works that are executed with a single material to emphasize the harmony of the reference architectures.

The result of the project of Marià Castelló is an exhibition full of nuances and with great material uniformity, which enhances the duality necessary to conceive architecture and which pays tribute to the historical and contemporary architectural heritage of the island of Formentera.
The module which the exposed pieces follow is made of concrete and plaster. These are proposed in a way that in different compositions allows building larger-scale structures and landscapes thanks to their juxtaposition. In these pieces the aggregates of local extraction or recycled prevail.

Description of project by Marià Castelló
Architecture Fragments is a project that was born tangent to the borders between different plastic arts, especially drawing, photography, painting, sculpture and architecture.
Concrete paintings, plaster projections or dreamlike architectures.
The works that make up this sample have been carried out between 2019 and 2020, paying tribute to the historical and contemporary architectural heritage of the island of Formentera. The result are pieces full of nuances and with great material uniformity, which enhances the duality necessary to conceive Architecture: hollow and full, inside and outside, light and shadow…
The daily tools for the practice of Architecture are put at the service of an artistic project that shows the entrails of wonderful buildings. Sections, plans and other projections intertwine to explain extraordinary relationships that are hidden from the naked eye.
Many of the pieces refer to buildings in which the Marià Castelló architecture studio has intervened and of which they have a deep knowledge.
Most of the works are executed with a single material to emphasize the harmony of the reference architectures. Mainly it is concrete and plaster. Mortars of different compositions made with locally extracted or recycled aggregates, rainwater and other elements with a low environmental footprint.
Many of the pieces are inscribed in the 20x5x20 cm format, a module that would allow the construction of larger-scale structures and landscapes thanks to their juxtaposition.
The laborious task involved in reaching the pieces for this exhibition has been possible thanks to the invaluable help, criteria and determination of the architect Lorena Ruzafa Tur, the conviction in the project of the cultural promoter Manolo Oya and the unconditional support of the artist Elena Vinyarskaya.

Marià Castelló · Architecture began its course in February 2002 with the first public and private initiative projects in Formentera. The connection, the respect and the commitment with the culture, the landscape and the territory of the minor of the Pitiüsas islands was determining in the professional and personal orientation chosen.
The study has collaborated with editorial projects of different nature, exhibitions and presentations with the purpose of spreading both the patrimonial baggage existing on the island and those contemporary interventions generated with criteria and reflection.
Among his last prizes, he stands out as a finalist in the 59th edition of the FAD Awards in the category of "City and Landscape" for the work "Restauració del Fossar Vell of Sant Francesc" (2017), the Special mention (2nd Position) of the Prize European Intervention in the Architectural Heritage AADIPA (2017) for the Restoration of the Tower des Pi des Català, s. XVIII in Formentera, or the work selected in the Catalan Pavilion of the Biennale di Architettura di Venezia (2012) "Architectural Rowers" in the "Contexts" section.
