Architectural Anatomy uses fragmentation and reconstruction to question how architecture is conventionally understood as stable, rational, and complete. By breaking and rebuilding the frame, I transform a familiar building into an unstable, bodily presence shaped by tension, distortion, and projection. The structure remains recognisable, yet its coherence begins to loosen as surfaces shift from monument to organism, from inert form to something strange and faintly animate. In this work, fragmentation is not treated as loss, but as a way of opening cracks in the present. It asks what happens when the structures that organise everyday reality no longer feel fixed, and when architecture begins to suggest other possible futures, perceptions, and forms of life. The image inhabits that uncertain threshold, where the familiar starts to mutate and reality gives way to imagination.
