Text description provided by architect.
Marga, digging inside is a site-specific site located in the Cultural Park of Valparaíso.
It was about mounting a sunken sphere; a half-earth, half-stone shelter made up of 16 concrete pieces that together form a single shell balanced in an excavation.
These shells were designed and built with textile forms to receive concrete, a material that begins its life as a wet and plastic fluid, etching the texture of its molds on its surface.
After two years of research, the piece now occupies the open space of the park, like an invitation to visit it.
