"The relationship between constructing and inhabiting is undoubtedly a central question of our existence, from the first caves to refugee tent camps, from seafront condos to massive urban developments. This investigation touches upon various themes.

The series of unusual facades of New York buildings depicted by Tommaso Sacconi emphasizes the technical aspect of this relationship. Anchor plates are used as structural supports to ensure the stability and, therefore, the solidity of buildings.

As beings who inhabit, humans have developed numerous technological devices to enhance the safety and comfort of this experience. Many of these systems and pieces of equipment are invisible, silent, and concealed within walls, cavities, ceilings, and floors, almost as if to hide our dependence on technology. It's as though we deny that technology is anything other than itself, when in fact, it is a direct product of language—an evolutionary consequence. However, Homo sapiens still defend their supremacy and control, revealing just enough of the construction techniques, disguising them when necessary, or summarizing them in an interface.

Through these photos, Sacconi instead reveals technology as innate to our species, giving aesthetic dignity to devices of reinforcement and stability that support the complex and majestic scaffolding of needs on which human affairs rest. Coming to terms with our nature and freeing ourselves from this subjection means recognizing not so much an inferiority, but a biological diversity. Technology is the fruit of intellectual potential. If we separate it from ourselves, we can justify any use, even the most infamous. If we are technology and do not merely create it, then any insult to technology is also an insult to our existence.

How many words can encapsulate the image of a facade? How can we liberate the conceptual or metaphorical implications of an image? To express them, we still require the language of words. It is intriguing to consider the possibility of images as anchor plates of a conceptual building, ensuring its stability."
