PERSPECTIVAL REFRAMING: A DINNER PARTY
Location: Ithaca, NY
The construction of this architectural model as the first project of Graduate School explores the mechanical and technical process of unconventional representation. The first phase consisted of an eccentric documentation of a dinner party, which acknowledged a progression of space and time. The analysis of each participant’s point of view at a specific moment encouraged the manipulation and transformation of space. Space deflates, recedes and tilts according to the person’s 60˚ frame of view. The objects tend to shift scales, enhancing closer things and minimizing the ones further. The final product challenges the conventional plan, and overlays the tangible space in a certain moment.
