Surveillance and Border Control

This work aims to be a reflection on the gaze, analysing its history and evolution and the way we have used it to decipher and understand our surroundings. Above all, it aims to invite the reader to a new way of looking at architecture, landscape, and objects as something that creates emotions and communicates, exemplifying this with concepts and objects of study. This essay analyses various elements, from architectural pieces to installations and artistic works. It is a reflection on the various aspects of the condition of limits, borders and surveillance, seeking to highlight the limits of landscape and vision as a place and space for contemplation, instability and change. The proposal aims not only to value this idea of retrospection on the concept of landscape, but also to create something with which the place itself can identify. The gaze as an instrument for creating space and architecture.
