A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
During Breakfast
This visual essay is part of a larger project, which explores transitional spaces in architecture and psychoanalysis: how architecture situates, and is situated by, objects (and subjects) of desire. This particular iteration focuses on a building – with Art Nouveau motifs inspired by naturalistic forms – commissioned by a member of the bourgeois class, and occupied during the Russian Revolution by a psychoanalytic nursery, closely linked to larger debates concerning the relation between Marxism and psychoanalysis. It also incorporates building's history, memories of those who occupied it, including the psychoanalyst Luria, and children who lived there when it was a nursery, such as Stalin's adopted son, Artyom Sergeyev.
