BUDA island

MaisonCaro creates an installation for de Maakbar. She creates a remedy for the lonely island. As a means of counteracting with the context; which is desolate and self-contained. She embraces these feelings and expresses them in a poetic spacial experience, glorifying the moment. To keep reminding us, a token is designed to serve as a visible representation of the facts and feelings. A souvenir to take home from the BUDA souvenirSHOP. Project supported by designregio Kortrijk, vindt plaats in de BUDAfabriek.

In this project I focus on the emotions and expressions of the Buda-island rather then the form of the island. I use the ‘vijfhoek’ as an inspiration and make full use of the characteristics of the space. My intention is to create a remedy for the lonely island. The sunlight, a soft breeze, the reflections of water; all elements that I bring inside.

I created a swing of 14meters, with this big radius, a very slow and easy swing is created. When swinging a projection is started. This is an optical illusion of moving water created by overhead projectors and ventilators. All these elements to create a sense of freedom, as a utopian feeling of the island. An experience that hacks your equilibrium and floats you into free space. This installation as a game with natural elements to bring the outside in.
