The genesis of "Ephemeral Echoes: A Dome of Reflection" finds its roots in my profound motivation to explore and express the intersection between ephemeral architecture and reflective contemplation. This installation emerges as an attempt to merge the transience of form with the eternity of reflection.
The title itself, "Ephemeral Echoes," encapsulates the ephemeral essence of the work, suggesting the fleeting nature of every moment we live in the space we share. The irregular hexagonal structure and the regular pentagonal piece, intertwined to form a transparent dome, become the fundamental elements shaping this unique experience. Each of these pieces, with its distinctive characteristics of resistance, sustainability, geodesy, and wave diffusion, not only contributes to structural integrity but also symbolizes crucial facets of our physical environment.
The central premise of the installation, focused on "reflection," invites viewers to immerse themselves in deep contemplation of their surroundings and their intrinsic connection to it. The meticulous arrangement of elements such as lighting, selected materials, and acoustics is not merely aesthetic but a guide designed to facilitate the viewer's interaction with the work. Every detail is conceived with the purpose of providing an experience that is not just lived but reflected upon.
"Ephemeral Echoes: A Dome of Reflection" thus becomes a visual and conceptual testament to the temporality and depth of our existence. It is more than a simple architectural structure; it is a space that captures the fleeting nature of time and the unchanging continuity of reflection. In the brief duration of inhabiting this dome, viewers engage in a silent dialogue with their environment, confronting the transience of life while finding resonance in the ephemeral imprints they leave behind.
