Fluid Language of Form - When the Fabric Shapes the Structure

Lecture

Frederik Petersen

The lecture offers insight into the technical challenges and artistic considerations behind the development of a detailed, organic design language using fabric formwork – an unpredictable casting process in which thin, elastic membranes are used to create sculptural, structural elements. The process's surprisingly complex geometries are presented through photography and drawing, as well as through physical scale models and casting molds that the audience is invited to explore.

Flydende formsprog – Når stoffet former strukturen

Forelæsningen formidler et indblik i de tekniske udfordringer og kunstneriske overvejelser bag udviklingen af et detaljeret, organisk formsprog ved hjælp af fabric formwork – en uforudsigelig støbeproces, hvor tynde, elastiske membraner anvendes til at fremstille skulpturelle, strukturelle elementer. Processens overraskende komplekse geometrier præsenteres gennem fotografi og tegning samt medbragte skalamodeller og støbeforme, som tilhørerne får mulighed for at udforske.
