Liisa Aaltio - Thekla
from Italo Calvino’s novel Invisible Cities “A city under continuous construction where buildings are “supported with endless scaffoldings, cranes and trestles, build according to the stars in the night sky. “What is the aim of a city under construction unless it is a city? Where is the plan you are following, the blueprint?” “We will show it to you as soon as the working day is over; we cannot interrupt our work now,” they answer. Work stops at sunset. Darkness falls over the building site. The sky is filled with stars. “There is the blueprint,” they say.” ”
