Specialism: ADS5


The aim of this project is to propose a new prototype for an art exhibition space, challenging two aspects of traditional art galleries: one is the mechanism of an art exhibition and the other is the space for artworks.


In order to achieve a new mechanism for an art exhibition, a series of architectonic programmable surfaces, which can engender artworks in a digital format, has been investigated.


In terms of the space for artworks, a methodology of translating traditional gallery spaces into an urban-scale version has been considered. A gallery of the urban-scaled version will perform a role of a networking platform between Hackney Wick and the Olympic Legacy.


This is an attempt to design a new spatial experience of networking between art galleries, cultural events and urban contexts.
