So you Want to be an Architect

Daphne

Daphne, the myth, runs from Apollo into the forest. She petrifies into a tree, by doing so she accepts pain. "We should not conceive of Daphne's tree as a system of defense. Her building is not a castle or a fortress. It is not an edifice of power but one of frailty. Daphne's monolith is not a stature of narcissism and self-complacency, but the "void shape" of self-shattering. It does not repel pain but absorbs it. In other words, Daphne's monument is not a building against pain but a building of pain or, as Anthony Vidler would put it, 'in pain.'" - Spyros Papapetros. Surrealism and Architecture.
