Location
Toronto, Canada
[In collaboration with Yahya Abdullah]
Description
To float; an act paralleling the
human desire to rid gravity’s individual pull on the body. One can
imagine experiencing serenity or
intensity depending on how water is engaged; a natatorium may truly
become a space for varying levels
of passion. The key characteristic of the project derivation is apparent
through investigations of two juxtaposing systems; the duality of solid
and void as a material and spatial
relationship, ties the project to an overarching curiosity of time, space,
light and water.
