Suspended Rod Installation, Paris Interior Architecture

4 October 2017 · Paris

Hundreds of slender white rods hang at varying lengths from a dark panel ceiling, dense enough to read as a single rhythmic field and sparse enough to let the geometry breathe between them. Shot from below at an angle, the installation fills the frame corner to corner — each rod casting a faint shadow onto the reflective panels behind it. It is ordered repetition doing the work that ornament usually does: pattern as structure, structure as surface.
