"Carving Through Constraints" (2015) Location : "Measure" Exhibition, Storefront for Art and Architecture Gallery, New York, USA Rickie's drawing was selected to represent Grimshaw Architects at the Storefront for Art and Architecture's annual drawing exhibition in New York. About the Drawing : Openings, spaces, and forms are often measured and regulated by stringent national building standards. Inspired by the theme of ‘Measure’, an accumulation of text sourced from UK planning documents offers an artificial / imaginary plane in which the elevation of New York’s Storefront for Art and Architecture is carved into. This drawing symbolizes the rigorous processes of making architecture whilst addressing constraints set out by legal requirements. |
