This piece came about from taking one component, the “V” shaped lines that guide the curved net, and putting combining them. It started with rotating them and putting 3 next to each other in alternating order, and then naturally mirroring that vertically, and connecting the sides together to create a strange shape that reminded me of an egg sac that had been opened. Naturally, I wanted to fit something inside the space, and create a distance as if one is passing through this hole to the other side. This idea naturally led to the development of the outside walls, to give a sense that the viewer is currently passing through one of these shapes.
