The project is Y la tierra será el paraíso includes a photographic series showing polygons of large social housing buildings. Domènec, who has taken these snapshots in cities far from each other such as Barcelona, Warsaw, Bratislava, Marseille, Nantes, Empuriabrava and Mexico City, shows the images without indicating their origins. In this way, he highlights the way in the existence and aesthetics of these buildings, located all in big cities’ peripheries, as a sign of harmful globalization and state control that relegates the marginalized of capitalism to the margins of the city, limiting their social mobility.
