TRIENALES URBANAS * The Triptych Logic * Relational Resonance within the States of Vigil (2015–2025)


Eschewing linear narration, the series privileges rhythm and juxtaposition, transforming perception itself into a medium. What emerges is not merely a record of urban transit, but a "twilight atlas"—a slow, patient unfolding of time, matter, and relation where the everyday reveals its latent architectures and absence is elevated to a state of resonance. Each triptych functions as a "translatorial" device, anchoring the artist’s "States of Vigil" (Estados de Vigilia) across the metropolitan fabric. From the industrial remnants of 2022 to the synthetic triads of 2025, the work operates as an expansive archive of "minimal whiteness" and "tactile oxidation." By grouping these images in threes, Lloveras creates a modular epistemic system that resists the totalizing gaze of traditional architectural photography.

The Twilight Atlas of Socioplastics * Transdisciplinary Architectures and the Agonistic Ecology of LAPIEZA



The contemporary urban condition demands a shift from the static monument to the "twilight atlas"—a metaphor for a mode of proximity that is patient, non-totalizing, and deeply attuned to the fragile resonances of the everyday. Socioplastics, as articulated through the fifteen-year trajectory of the LAPIEZA agency and the visionary praxis of Anto Lloveras, emerges not as a rigid definition but as a transdisciplinary terrain where architecture, epistemology, and art converge. It is a rhizomatic framework inspired by the agonistic frictions of Foucault, Deleuze, and Bourdieu, where the artwork is displaced from the fixed object into a process of cross-pollination and collective mutation. Central to the socioplastic ethos is the Trienal Urbanas (2015–2025), a sustained investigation into the "States of Vigil" (Estados de Vigilia). Through the logic of the triptych—a triad of images acting as a "translatorial device"—Lloveras maps the psycho-geographic cartography of metropolitan fragility. These sequences capture "minimal whiteness" and "tactile oxidation," resisting linear narration in favor of a rhythmic unfolding of time. Whether in the industrial peripheries of Madrid or the historic cores of European capitals, these triptychs function as cognitive anchors that reveal the latent architectures of the mundane, positioning the artist as a sentinel of the ephemeral.
