Patchwork Pavilion

I thought of this when Maya was talking to us about how we could fill the spaces between the “branches” of out installation.  In both cases, we would be using a series of simple, low cost and recycled (?) panels suspended between a regularized structure.  The patchwork wall at the one edge of our site could also work for us in a scheme similar to this, where we begin to pick up on the context of the site and its surroundings, pulling the city into, over and though the naturally inspired installation of further reinforcing the juxtaposition of the natural within the city.  This canopy can also be used to reinforce various conditions we want to establish within the installation by using heavier, more opaque panels in areas of compression and lighter, translucent panels in open areas.  Open spaces without panels can be used to create areas of focus that frame views etc...  If we do opt to use a projection of some sort, panels such as these can act as a surface to project onto as well.
