6 Jan 2006 - 20 Jan 2006, Dansk Design Center
Textile designer Ane Lykke explores the ways that various materials affect a room and interact with the surroundings.
This intriguing installation will be up until February 20th at Danish Design Centre's Balcony space. Lykke has set up two parallel layers of hexagonal boxes--each painted with red lines--hung 14 cm apart, along the back wall of the gallery. As visitors enter the room, they create air disturbances, which are tranposed into subtle moire patterns. Very low tech, but very sophisticated.
As Lykke explains, the wall is "passively waiting" and is only activated when the spectator moves within the space. Then variations of the patterns follow along as a film, forming a living, vibrating surface. In this way, the spectator alters the wall.
