TextFields is a collaborative design research project investigating the boundaries of the spatial and text worlds. The design research explores the possible forces that text can generate within a spatial and formal context recognizing the potential for unfamiliar terrains and hybrid qualities by the emergence of a field of textual geometry.
Introduction
TextFields is a collaborative design research project investigating the boundaries of the spatial and text worlds. The design research explores the possible forces that text can generate within a spatial and formal context recognizing the potential for unfamiliar terrains and hybrid qualities by the emergence of a field of textual geometry.
The installation investigates the dialectical relationship between the centre and circumference, where the text of the corridor and the corridor suspend themselves into a shifted, ruptured and dislocated but an immersive environment.
Concept
Initially generated as a three-dimensional virtual field, Textfields, consists of a total of 358 elements that will be constructed by means of custom design, digital scripting and laser-cut materials.
Concept Diagram
Each of the individual components contains information of its original text map, the forces that affected its position, and its serial location within the entire field.
The installation was collaboration with Jerome Rigaud and Rajat Sodhi as a part of our multi-disciplinary investigation and research.
