THESIS / PARATHESIS / ANTITHESIS 1987.
An installation aiming to create for the visitor a physical awareness of the specific site through a reverse sensory process.
The Building is located parallel to the railroad tracks of Metro North, next to the Hudson River and is oriented facing West.
All ten windows are closed with hot rolled steel plates each one fitted with a small aperture proportionally similar to them. As the sun moves through the course of the day, the light entering the space travels across the floor onto the opposite wall (A visual echo of the sound waves that fill the space at regular time intervals as the trains whistle past on their timetable).
Along the central axis of the building a 66 unit work, close-packed between the structural columns, creates an artificial barrier which restricts the flow of movement and divides the previously open interior space into two well defined static areas.
