The intention of this thesis is to look at the topic of cultural cannibalism and at the ruin, trying to relate them to one another with the intention of finding meaning, inspiration, shapes and, specially, purpose. “Cannibalism. The permanent transformation of the tabu into totem.” A verse from the Anthropophagic Manifesto, meaning that accepting “the enemy” instead of neglecting it, seemed fitting to the idea of looking at an abandoned ruin as something that still has qualities.

Pedro Suzan Moi
Architect graduate from Lund Tekniska Högskolan (M.Sc.) and Karlsruhe Institut für Technologie (B.Sc.).
Interested in exploring new ways of comprehending the existing and the built world. Working with photography and models, I believe that visual communication plays a vital role in our field.
Born in Brazil, moved during my teens to Germany, I have been always exposed to cultural friction. Often seeking inspiration within customs and difference between cultures, I am constantly pursuing external influences for my work.
Currently based in Stockholm.
