Juan Pablo Pinto & Cristian Rojas | The Hermitage

This giant, slightly crushed tin can washed up on a rock shelf conflates the idea of the vessel as a squat for a homeless creature (crab or human) with that of an exclusive beach-front pad marketed by shameless real estate sharks.

The Hermitage is a visual paradox, an exploration of vast differences in people’s expectations of what it means to have a roof over one’s head.

Amid Australia’s housing crisis, pretentious and bloviated descriptions of prestige homes must read obscene to the many who struggle to find the most basic housing.
