Circle as Space is an installation made of

circular forms, dealing with the perception of

the human body in space through the fluid relation

between its individual fragments.

Since the very beginning – even as a fetus in a

womb – until the end of our life we claim space through

our growth and our existence. Depending on circumstances,

we expand or contract the physical and the

mental spacees we claim in a room.

Each individual unit of the installation is made

of suspended loops and hangs loosely in space. In

the repetition and extension of the basic form of a

circle, these units are understood as a shapeshifting

whole that holds an indeterminate space. Hence,

these figures emphasize being and non-being. Although

each unit stands for an individual persona, it

resolves itself in the mass and builds a united body

of work.
