In Rhythmic fragments

β€œIt was but yesterday I thought myself a fragment quivering without rhythm in the sphere of life. Now I know that I am the sphere, and all life in rhythmic fragments moves within me.” – Khalil Gibran, Sand and Foam.

In Rhythmic Fragments is a biophilic spatial installation that translates mensurated motions into kinetic architectural boundaries. Inspired by the rhythmic flows of energy observed at varied scales in the natural environment, the installation aims to engage our mind with contemplative content to evoke the sense of being mesmerized.
