Mash-up
--------------
That Futurist architecture is not because of this an arid combination of practicality and usefulness, but remains art, i.e. synthesis and expression.
That decoration as an element superimposed on architecture is absurd, and that the decorative value of Futurist architecture depends solely on the use and original arrangement of raw or bare or violently colored materials.
Destroy adoration of the past, obsession with the antique, academic arrogance and formalism.
Drive artistic thematic to the city. The new city thought of as a machine in movement;
Reinforce the original behaviour based on daring, courage and rebellion as
essential elements of artistic transformation.
negative space is both the result and manufacturer of the oppression of the working class. The perpetual state of being in an emptiness, an in-between space, is an expression of the alienation and isolation produced by the modern metropolis the Futurist wanted to perfect.

EA: Emotions of surreal curvature arouse faith, belief and hope
Quietly sitting on the rock bridge between the twin islands, it's place between man and nature. The blue and gold texture represents the ocean and the sun blend into each other.
Instead of rising upwards, the lower monument points towards the ever reaching horizon from the narrow opening of the channel. Facing vast ocean, open space and the sun during sunset, it's a symbol of faith and hope.
All curvatures are facing the furthest tip of the structure, which resembles a sense of "belief".
