BREATHE AREA

Poblic Installation Art | 4 weeks in 2021

With the development of social media and advertising, people are losing interest in exploring architecture or even any form of art. When we explore architecture, we are used to using our eyes instead of other senses, but this also greatly limits our perception of the architectural atmosphere. Therefore, I want to build a breathe area that can be implanted into any space, so as to arouse the audience's interest in observing buildings

TESTING AND CONSTRUCTION

At the beginning of the work, I conducted research and testing on rice paper to make sure that I could explore its advantages. I found that rice paper has good strength and light transmittance, so I hope to design the whole structure by virtue of these two characteristics of rice paper. I think Cube can represent the unit of space and building construction, but this structure itself is not stable, so I added three support columns in each of the top corners of Cube to ensure the stability of the structure

I use the translucent feature of rice paper to block the sight of the audience, so that they could focus their attention on other senses, such as hearing, smell and touch. Finally, I used multisensory stimulation to arouse the audience's interest in the building
