Fluid Form

This project shows the investigation of a slow curve. By using a single material I created a 3 dimensional model based on two precedents; Herzog and de meuron and Zakary Kinnaird. Herzog and de Meuron and Zakary Kinnaird both use fluid form by using structure, repetition, light, cuts and folds to create abstract and 3 dimensional compositions. The material that I constructed my model from was paper, which I cut through and folded to get the effect of a 3 dimensional model. I chose to use paper as it leaves a very clean, crisp cut, it creates evocative shadows and when light is shone through it, it illuminates the paper. I feel that my model consisted of all these elements which made it very effective and successful.
