''We shape our buildings, thereafter they shape us''
-Winston Churchill
Thereafter they shape us is a series of five installations, being formed from three blocks in each arrangement. From horses excrements to San Pedro Cacti and dried cod, it brings one to a play with a wide section of different undergoes.
It is a distant reference to Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho and the slightly outdated concept of the unconscious by Freud. Regarding the interpretations of the Slovenian philosopher, Slavoj Zizek, The ID, The Ego and the Super Ego are the ongoing themes on the floors, seen in the mansion of the movie. Be that as it may, Therefore they shape us is a set for its viewer as a game, without no conclusion or a final thought.
