Light + Program
Define the relationships between light and program. How the program differentiates space + light, and defines distribution within the gallery.
The structure uses a tri-surface configuration, irregularly positioned in straight and flexing horizontal and vertical alignments. The result is a continuum of three surfaces separated by a series of discrete boundaries identified by shifting light patterns. The interwoven surfaces continually pass from front to back. The quantity of light is limited by the mass of surface material; the quality of its flow through the woven channels is luminous and smooth.
Consider movement, sequence, user, volume, event, and site.
The new architecture poses no single passive factor. By harnessing the passage of light, the user initiates moments of privacy and revelation. The user controls the release of light through the deformation of surface density: stretching the material constituents allows the light to fill the void revealed and filter through the expanded surface. The direction of the distortion: anchoring the extended surface to a different angle and plane generates a dynamic relationship between light and shade. Engaging the movement of both user and media stimulates an exploration of boundaries, both old and new, and alters the user’s perception of their journey through space and time.
