Envelop Of Space

"Envelope of Space" is an exploration of the intangible and the manifest, a dialogue between the seen and the unseen that shapes our existence. Through the medium of inflated bags, painstakingly stitched together with transparent wire, I have sought to materialize the often invisible burdens that we bear. The installation dominates the space, its size monumental, yet it speaks to the paradox of how something so large can still be unseen, how the mind's preoccupations can fill our lives without ever taking solid form.

The repetitive nature of the bags and their careful assembly invokes a sense of crafted rhythm, each unit contributing to a cohesive whole. This is a labor of both weight and weightlessness, embodying the dichotomy of life's challenges—how they can feel overwhelmingly heavy, yet are, in essence, as insubstantial as air. The transparency of the floating airbags grants the structure an ethereal quality; it is present and yet not, solid and yet void, full and yet empty.

Familiar in their individuality, each airbag resembles a cushion—a simple, everyday object. But united, they transcend their singularity to become part of a larger, geometric form that pulses with a dramatic, almost theatrical presence. Over time, the airbags begin to deflate, altering the structure's density, creating new spaces within its layers, and enhancing the sense of a free-floating form. This natural progression underlines the transformative aspect of the work, embracing the beauty of impermanence and the ephemerality of experience.

Through "Envelope of Space," I narrate the ephemeral nature of existence—the fleeting moments that come together to form the patchwork of our lives. The installation evolves, its form changing, reflecting the transient nature of being, and in its transformation, it uncovers the profound relationship between existence and impermanence, between the air we breathe and the space we inhabit, between the enveloping presence of life's complexities and the ultimate liberation of letting go.
