The Design

About Crowd Gathering of Dots Instalação Artística

Crowd Gathering of Dots é uma instalação artística criada para o lobby de um hotel em Tainan, Taiwan. A obra ocupa uma superfície de 100 metros quadrados. Esferas de cerâmica feitas à mão são dispostas ao longo da parede para sugerir o fluxo e a tensão espacial de uma multidão que se reúne. Cada esfera recebe um acabamento em esmalte preto brilhante que reflete a imagem de cada visitante. Por serem modeladas manualmente, todas as esferas apresentam pequenas diferenças entre si. Pés em bronze e dourado sustentam as esferas em posição, e a projeção de luz cria sombras tridimensionais em constante mudança.

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.
