The installation “Wind of Change” creates a fluid movement between concrete spaces just as immigration finds a similar movement within a country. The interaction between newcomers and natives is mimicked as elements begin to transform each other on the frame. These curved and graceful shapes reflect how surroundings adapt to new incoming cultures. As people travel in and out of countries, the culture gap becomes smaller and smaller, just as the spaces between the paper grow smaller. When these elements from different cultures are brought together we become a source of change, and these small, continuous movements give lasting changes to a country enabling it to discover new paths for generations to come.
_includes an image of the original project
_justify why it deserves to be expanded
The cube became such a large installation and there wasn't really a chance to be able to push it into other realms. I want this cube to be able to be available through a multitude of design resources. It tells the story and history of Luxembourg, which is interesting in itself, but shown visually as so, it's so much more delicate, interesting, and easier to understand. It deserves to be expanded because it's my most diverse project, and one that is outside of the realm of graphic design. I think that in itself is important enough, that it can be both an installation and a design.
_lists any things to be improved and other channels you would like to expand to (print, web site, mobile, tablet, environmental, motion, etc.)
I'd like to take the project through a multitude of different mediums. I'd like to make a short motion clip showing how it works and how the cube came about... maybe in a sort of commercial way to promote Luxembourg and their culture, or just as an intro video. Also, I'd like to be able to make it into an app so that people can still manipulate the cube virtually, and also to learn more about Luxembourg. It deserves more exposure
