Wyatt Walski-Rodriguez
(Site Under Construction)
Wyatt is a B.Arch. student at Virginia Tech aimed at contributing to the history of architecture, humanity, and reality through work that is often visceral, sometimes naive, but always personal.
His designs revolve around the body and its imagination, asserting that architectural values and prowess are grounded in a subject unchained by mere conceptual thinking and cerebral reason. The work of architecture is a setting for that subject, offering to its inhabitants what Trisha Brown once called a “natural activity under the stress of an unnatural setting.”
His designs revolve around the body and its imagination, asserting that architectural values and prowess are grounded in a subject unchained by mere conceptual thinking and cerebral reason. The work of architecture is a setting for that subject, offering to its inhabitants what Trisha Brown once called a “natural activity under the stress of an unnatural setting.”
But the form is also a subject itself, its character exceeding the needs and desires of the inhabitant. In a global culture barreling towards seamlessness and individualization at the cost of culture, health, and the profundity of the human spirit and its environments, Wyatt’s work aims to reassert wonder. At its core this effort strives towards a deeper appreciation of reality’s vast interconnectedness--one that cannot be reduced to human understanding. We must once again realize the responsibility we hold in producing and maintaining meaning for ourselves and one another.
