About Crowd Gathering of Dots Umělecká instalace

Crowd Gathering of Dots je umělecká instalace vytvořená pro lobby hotelu v Tainanu na Tchaj-wanu. Dílo pokrývá plochu 100 metrů čtverečních. Ručně vyrobené keramické koule jsou rozmístěny po celé stěně tak, aby naznačovaly proudění a prostorové napětí shromážděného davu. Každá koule je opatřena lesklou černou glazurou, která odráží podobu každého návštěvníka. Protože jsou koule tvarovány ručně, každá z nich se mírně liší od ostatních. Bronzové a zlaté patky drží koule na místě a světelná projekce vytváří proměnlivé trojrozměrné stíny.

Production Technology
This installation art piece, Crowd gathering of dots, is full of strong emotions and strength, it creates a natural and beautiful visual experience for travelers. No matter what the purpose of the traveler is, they can find their spot here in this hotel.
Design Challenge
As we are also interior designers and relative experience in dealing with this art installation on marble walls, we understand its rigidity and the fixation mechanism behind the walls. We were able to design a point-to-point space, while at the same time presenting our ideal image of the visitor.
Research
Lake Shore Hotel is located in Tainan, a friendly city with a rich history, heritage and culture. We choose to make the ceramic balls by hand, because handmade, so every point is different and organic. Because it is made by hand, the production outcome is with its own characters. The surface is covered with a glossy black glaze, reflecting each visitor own look.
Inspiration
A journey is a rhythm of life, which to some extent must be suspended from the reality of life, just like a migrating bird that changes with the seasons.
A hotel is the stopping place of the trip, just like the warm south where the migrating bird resides. Lake Shore Hotel in Tainan, where the local customs are friendly and mild, is the station that makes travelers feel a sense of belonging.
Project Duration
Finished in 2019 in Lake Shore Hotel, Tainan City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
By pre-planning the walls, we are able to control the layout of the whole picture and the right proportion of the units. To control the ceramics balls producing in the same shape and glaze color, but this is also a fascinating aspect of handcraft.
