NEW YORK

In this installation origami, the Japanese art of paper folding is translated into an architectural exploration of how the folding and repetition of modular elements can create complex and evocative spatial forms.

German-born architect Chris Bosse, director of Laboratory for Visionary Architecture (LAVA) in Sydney, bases his practice on the computational study of organic structures and resulting spatial conceptions. These ideas were explored by Bosse in the design for the 2008 Summer Olympics Beijing National Aquatics Centre, 'The Water Cube'.

In Spatial Origami, Bosse collaborates with artists Christina Waterson, John Vella and students of The University of Tasmania's school of Architecture & Design to create a new entry element for the Queen Victoria Museum & Art Gallery at Inveresk.
