In the majority of designs, representations and photos of the architecture, the human body is absent. It is usually taken for granted, self-evident, and it is by-passed. However,the body constantly changes and evolves (both in space and time).
This special research work is an attempt to re-define the body and approach it outside the stereotypes. Through contemporary feministic and various social theories, its sexual attribute is researched, as well as the discrimination and relationship between sex and gender. Furthermore the role of the subject is examined, in the shaping of its sexual identity and its own sexuality, and the extension of influence of both social and cultural institutions on this shaping.
The body is considered with space terms and is been confronted as space. In this case, the relationship between the subject and this specific space is examined; the subject, the means of action and the body itself coincide, it is the body itself.
If, eventually, the body is space, is been inhabited? Who inhabits in it? How this habitation is declared? Therearepracticesof its habitationwhich express the subjectivity, the gendered and social identity, which reconsider the body. In this specific work are mentioned and analyzed habitation species and practices of our own body. Everybody, withonewayoranother, inhabitstheirbody.
