examination of solid-void objects
Prick, March 8-10th 2018, First Year 2nd Semester
I was in middle school when I saw some of Escher’s works for the first time, I become a fan then. Been too impressed by how he is using voids in a form that transforms into a solid shape.
Shapes that he was using were able to connect from each side without being symmetrical.
While examining the void I’ve thought to create project in an inductive way, so instead of shredding a cube into a smaller form, I’ve created 3D components from EPS foam and connect them from different sides in a systematic form.
Gap between the first piece and the second piece was 0.5cms, then I've space out 1cms between 2nd and 3rd pieces. From left to right gap between components were increasing 0.5cms each time until the 6th piece.
From bottom to top, system is still able to work. I’ve had no variations of components, I’ve only had one type, but two pieces were able to to connect in 9 different way.
I’ve didn’t used any glue, system’s elements were all interlocking. Material was so lightweight so the system did beared itself.
Prick doesn’t have any specific place to locate, while creating it, I’ve thought to design it in space and think that it’s floating, so that every side of Prick could be sensible from anywhere the experiencer looking at it.
