PAPER DIGITAL CLOUD – ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENT

An architectural element that transforms light and movement.

Paper is used for its fragility, its lightness and its relationship to light. It can be folded, thrown, torn, suspended…

Used as an architectural element, it serves as a decomposed projection screen, as material used in interaction with the dancer and his movement. It serves as a constraint because it modifies the space, becomes mobile and changes the dancers’ supports when it is on the ground. It is a connection point between dance and light. This process is called “Paper Numerical Cloud”.

In addition to the form, this element reveals a strong symbolism. Paper is a form of artistic emptiness from which everything can be built. It is also a symbol of the intellect. In any case, the first way to crystallise an idea is to write it down on a blank sheet of paper. The white sheet of paper is therefore an element that brings together content and form. This support will allow the development of modular scenographies for performances as well as for permanent installations. These paper architectures will serve as excrescences that can be affixed to any surface to make it a place of presentation. A way to create spatial, visual and choreographic mutations.

The advantage of this medium is that it can be used for participatory workshops. A playful way to develop creativity in an interdisciplinary practice.
