CASE 11 — FLAG OF CONVENIENCE

By means of computer graphics simulations the work explores the shapes generated by a flag with dynamic refractive properties. Light phenomena of refraction are observed in relationship with the mechanical folding of textiles. This transparent drapery metamorphoses into water, plastic, diamond and others non-existent clear materials in a continuous flow and is projected into the exhibition space as a ghostly light effect. This « case study » is part of the project « Cave Caustics ».
