ARCH1201: "Art Gallery," The Model

















Constructing the model out of white card and copper-coloured, textured card seemed the best way to convey the architecture as a blank canvas for graffiti art. Every reachable surface (the upper level of the residence pavilion being beyond reach) is paintable. The art borne by these surfaces will have a dynamic character, changing with each new performance and with the layered nature of the art form. White conveys the pure concept, where colour and miniaturized graffiti would have been distracting.
