"BABEL:
The construction of a ruin, permeated with eternity"


a poetic and conceptual installation
by the Uruguayan artist Pedro Peralta

Invitation Babel Design Sonia Siblik

What remains of an idea when it breaks?
What remains of man when his building rests?

With BABEL, Uruguayan artist Pedro Peralta creates a visual contemplation of humanity's eternal impulse to grasp the immeasurable—and the risk of losing oneself in the process. In this series of works, consisting of eight architecturally inspired compositions, the boundaries between construction and memory, myth and the present blur.

Reduced lines, broken shapes, translucent planes:
Here, architecture becomes the language of the unfinished, the chronicle of failure – or the call of a new vision.

BABEL is not just a cycle of images.

It is an invitation to look deeper:
Into history.
Within ourselves.
Into what lives between the lines.

A game between eternity and decay, "BABEL" invites us to reflect on the transience of human works—but also on the power of new beginnings. It's a project that ignites the creative spark in the tension between art and architecture and shows how imagination, craftsmanship, and digital technologies can combine to create a new language. I need this text, which sounds so good, not to be a copy of the texts I've given you here.
