The monument maintains a distance to its surroundings while being a very big part of the culture it exist in. The ambiguity in being the autonomous entity, represented as an arc, that sits without touching and is made entirely of its surroundings, although it never becomes its surroundings.

The monument seeks to confront its contextual surrounding both as an urban layer ( a reinterpretation of the square ) and as an architectonic in- tervention that preserves a distorted memory of Venice. 

The monument acts as an 3 dimensional archive, that monitors and scans Venice into a digital form protected by the arc.The monument acts as an 3 dimensional archive, that monitors and scans Venice into a digital form protected by the arc.

The Architecture of the Monument is derived from the contextual scan, where the Monument itself becomes a reflection of its input. Input being the ornament that stems from the scan of the environment, thereby enhancing and reinterpreting the ornament as a spatial configuration.
