The Design
About Cascading Canyon Taideinstallaatio
Cascading Canyon on Grand Canyonin inspiroima taideinstallaatio. Teos on valmistettu paperista, ja se on kokonaan käsin taiteltu ja käsin koottu. Yli 40 000 Sonobe-tyyppistä modulaarista origamiyksikköä muodostaa pinnat, jotka on liitetty toisiinsa sisäänrakennettujen läppien ja taskujen avulla. Installaatio on suunniteltu tilaan, jonka mitat ovat 8 x 4 x 8 jalkaa, ja se koostuu kolmesta osasta: taustasta, suuresta kivestä ja pienemmästä kivestä, jota voidaan käyttää istuimena. Vierailijat kulkevat teoksen läpi ja havainnoivat muotoa, väriä, valoa ja varjoa, mikä luo uudelleen tunteen kanjonin halki liikkumisesta.

- Production Technology
- The artwork is primarily made of paper, completely hand-folded and hand-attached. There are more than 40,000 origami modules which were folded for this installation. These modules are attached to each other because of its inbuildt quality of flaps and pockets which all connect to each other to make it into any form or structure that one desires. This type of origami is called Modular Origami and the name of this module is "Sonobe".
- Design Challenge
- The hardest part of this art installation was to transport it from one place to another. But with a little bit of brainstorming, we were able to figure out the logistics for packing and sending it to Delhi from Jaipur.
- Research
- For thr research of this installation, I took help from varios picures of the Canyon on the internet to get inspired by the forms, colours and light and shadow. I also read about the Canyon, about its history and how it was created.
- Inspiration
- The Grand Canyon inspires this art installation where in the idea was to recreate the feeling of walking through the canyon by bringing in the elements like the form, the colour as well as the light and shadow.
I've never visited the Grand Canyon myself, but I've always been captivated not only by how stunning it might appear surrounded by those majestic, almost divine rocks, but rather by the potential emotions it could evoke in me. - Project Duration
- This Artwork was specially designed for India Design 2024, held in New Delhi, India. The dates for the exhibition were 15th to 18th of Feb. The work on this Installation started in November 2023.
- Operation Flow
