Through this lens, she examines the intersection of memory, imagination, and design, presenting architecture as both a physical and narrative construct.<\/p>\n<p>Salk Institute | all illustrations by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/joha_mendoza_r\/\">Johana Carolina Mendoza Rodriguez<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">Mendoza Rodriguez recontextualizes architectural landmarks<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Based in Quito, Ecuador, Johana Mendoza Rodriguez studied architecture at the Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica del Ecuador (PUCE).

Her illustrations operate between art and design, suggesting that the representation of architecture can function as a poetic language, one that connects the tangible with the imagined.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Cuadra San Crist\u00f3bal<\/p>\n<p>Space Needle<\/p>\n<p>Kaufmann Desert House<\/p>\n<p>Solomon R.
