Critical text

Thomas Vengris weaves together, with a certain ironic nostalgia, five situations governed by love (and its hidden face) in a tourist apartment in Vilnius. The caresses and wounds experienced on human bodies leave their mark, in each story, on the architectural body itself. PABLO FERNÁNDEZ
