A Weighty Cloud, 2022

Cast in hydrocal, this tiling system imitates the form and structure of clouds. With just two types of tiles, a variety of free flowing compositions can be created. The rigidity of the geometry that underpins this tiling system contrasts with the amorphous texture of the tile pieces, and allows for varied arrangements and compositions. The cloud-like texture and the structure that emerges when the tiles are placed next to one another explores the relationship between the ideal and the material. Through repetition, the ideal emerges, but isolated each piece is only suggestive of the greater system of harmony.

This project was completed for A4856-1 Transitional Geometries, taught by Joshua Jordan at Columbia University, GSAPP.
