Antesala 0001 is a spatial installation conceived as the waiting room of a psychiatrist’s office. The project examines the subtle tension embedded in spaces of waiting—where silence, time, and proximity become charged. Rather than offering comfort, the room heightens awareness of oneself and of others.

Seating is positioned directly facing one another, removing the possibility of retreat and amplifying interpersonal unease. Light is deliberately lowered to face level, compressing the space and eliminating the neutrality typically associated with waiting rooms. The result is an environment where anticipation becomes palpable and the act of waiting itself turns into an experience.

Antesala 0001 was presented as part of Casas Project 2025 in Quito, Ecuador.
