Inspired by diverse sources such as origami and jellyfish, Aqua-scape is a remarkable ‘floating’ structure in the cool green environment of The Orangery art space.
Aqua-scape is a cocoon like urban folly or hide out designed and constructed by the Japanese designers Ryumei Fujiki and Fujiki Studio, where the principles of folding paper have been adapted to folding plastic.
While Aqua-scape ‘floats’ within The Orangery gardens, Beam Gallery will be displaying an exhibition about Ryumei Fujiki and his design practice, which is often inspired by nature.
Published to accompany Ryumei Fujiki’s exhibition at Beam’s Gallery, The Orangery, Wakefield, June – October 2009.
