Kisho Kurokawa's iconic Nakagin Capsule Tower, situated in Shinbashi, Tokyo, was one of the most prominent heir of the Japanese Metabolism, the ultimate 20th century utopian movement that proposed a city made of architectural structures working like living organisms.
The building, designed to last 200 years by being continually renovated and having its pieces plugged in and out, came this year to its final dénouement. The futuristic capsules were dismantled and sadly scattered. In this "delirious story" the artist proposes a parallel future, where the metabolic intention was grandly achieved: the building grew imposing towards the skies, remaining permanently under construction.
