Mario Montesinos Marco is an architect and designer based in Valencia. He completed his studies in 2018 at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. In 2020 he began the Master's Degree in “Advanced Architectural Design” at the Columbia University GSAPP, which he dropped out of due to the pandemic. He is co-author of the book Valencia Techno Culture, an exhibition that collects his research work “Disco. Posthuman Space”.
His multidisciplinary work ranges from theoretical research to the creation of spaces and objects that explore the boundaries between virtuality and reality, nature and artifice, and the user's relationship with technology. Spaces and objects for the multiplicity of bodies, ways of living and relating.
In his built projects such as Posthuman Crash, TransMorph or Vi&Mela Apartment, the boundaries between leisure and work, public and private, physical and virtual... become more porous, fluid and mutant. The domestic architectural space, together with the objects and their relationship with the bodies, thus act as an element in constant interaction with self-designed virtuality, facilitating the inclusion of diversity and multiplicity of being. An architecture to test new ways of life that allow the user to be an artifact of his own identity.
