Casa Jazmín’s silence is punctuated only by sounds specific to its erstwhile spatial program - a carefree laughter of children, the cackle of poultry, and a spiritual experience encoded somewhere within, by its fireplace. By illuminating a pathway through the house with a riot of lights, moments of magical suspense and repose are laid out. Here and there, the imagination runs wild, populating its kaleidoscopic atmosphere with all kinds of scenarios, anachronistic but immersive.
Stepping in, we inhabit an odd world, familiar yet enchanted. Meandering through its doors, stairs, coops and terraces, their smallness nudges one to shrink slightly, invoking a keen awareness of our own physicality. As we realise our place within the house, it realises its place within the magenta hillscape. What makes a house a home is always in the background, below our threshold of consciousness - subliminal.
