LIGA’s curatorial focus is on architecture as a reflexive practice and a discipline in which there converge different interests, practices and processes, often intangible at first sight. The conceptual process behind the invited architect’s practice has frequently been the principal axis of the interventions. From the Interstitial spaces in Adamo Faiden’s proposal, the Delicate Balance in the installation by Carla Juacaba, the Atmosphere in Paisajes Emergentes’ work, or Frida Escobedo’s work on Time, all the exhibits at LIGA have materialized characteristics of their architecture with experimental proposals.
