Evening Lark takes place in an art deco theater in Salvador, Brazil undergoing an advanced state of material and ecological decay. The theater is a zone of the future which has already happened, in which vegetal and cerebral, bacterial and architectural, native and traveler, and past, present, and future enter into new relations, facilitated by the decay of its abandoned interior. A vocabulary of cuts stages an encounter and an infection between this zone and the infrastructure of the former river outside. The project was developed within the context of Columbia University GSAPP with the mentorship of Mario Gooden.
