Balancing Device + Space for Balancing Device

Friction + Detachment

 

Project Statement

This project was driven by one or two dichotomies of our choice to create a balance. The device is made of bass wood. No dimension could be greater than 16”. It had to consist of at least 50 parts.

We had to create a space for the device and consider how it would react/interact to light, wind, and gravity. Each wall had to be a different thickness. I connected the space the device by utilizing friction to keep my woven walls together. I left openings so my device and light can interact with the space by employing the use of pattern in each wall.
