MANIFEST

The entangeling path

The material and its visual qualities - transparent, though alters the view of the surroundings into blurred sillhouettes. As a reflection on misty water, details and color is diminished into vague nyances, with less ability to define distance.

Subsequently, the experience of the internal space is enhanced, despite it only being conceived by the plastic.

With knowledge of the material, a path is defined. Distorted -manipulating with the perception of where and how the path untangles.

A staging of main events where the diverse qualities of the plastic are emphasized.

The contrast to the experience of the path, is the encapsulated exterior space. A place where one can meet without material limitation, embraced by the context, while enclosed by the path.

The manipulative path

The capsulating path

PROTOTYPES

PROCESS

A path, which forces a choice 路 A division of a path without hierarchical structure 路 A leading motion towards a meeting within materials and human relation 路 A manipulation of an immediate figured path.

By forcing a circular path, leading the explorer away from the starting point as the material and inflatable structure explores the relation between inhabitants, one passes from a state of separation, distanced by exterior space, to renewed meeting, though with no physical connection.

Working with an exploration of dimensions and connections through the given material, translucent pieced of plastic stapled together, the perception of spaciousness changes.

Subsequently with the changed connections, the space expands and retracts, as an enhancer of the expected meeting.
