Technical Temporality<\/em> is the title of the winning collage which earns Trine Mellemstrand Jarst\u00f8 the first prize in Drawing Of The Year 2021 along with \u20ac5,000. The jury draws a parallel to Asger Jorn’s famous painting, The Disturbing Duckling<\/em> (1959) and highlights the clash between classic and digital in the collage.<\/p>\n

“Trine Mellemstrand Jarst\u00f8\u00b4s collage elegantly disturbs our perception of a classical collage. By combining such different medias as aquarelle and point-cloud in one and the same drawing she creates a unique atmosphere of past and future, depicting a rural landscape where a bastant yet ephemeral architectural alien is about to explode – or implode? The striking use of colors, light and shadow emphasizes the strong composition of a remarkable collage \u2013 about to break on fire”, the jury writes.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>

Second prize goes to Stefan Pielmeier (GE), Technische Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen and Aarhus School of Architecture, for Digital Flood<\/em>, an all-out digital collage highlighting our consumption of social media and its impact on us as humans. The jury’s comment likens the collage to the decor for an online cathedral:<\/p>\n

“In a momentary metaphor of how we live today, this highly controversial collage consisting exclusively of information from SoMe, I-phone messages and VR from the Dance Floor, caught the Jury\u00b4s attention.\u00a0What is the role of the architect in an augmented reality? And who says the \u00b4real world\u00b4 is more real than the virtual one? How do we create architecture for new digital realities, and how does the access to many temporalities affect our perception of the built environment?\u00a0In addition to raising a number of questions the collage resembles a well composed digital triptych for an online cathedral where God is replaced with consumption.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>

In “Making Questions’, the winner of third prize, Anna Guseva (RU), points to the centrality of the question in human culture (“Who are we?”). The jury notices “the\u00a0strong evocative blend of art and architecture, in a clich\u00e9 filled atmosphere that gives memories of Edward Hopper and American realism from the fifties, even if it is made in Russia – today. In a strong composition of foreground, middleground and background, the collage creates a certain drama out of a common, everyday scenery, offering narrative interpretations rather than architectural solutions.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
