This work is an art festival held in April 2011 "Beaux Arts BallIt was exhibited at. This was produced by an office consisting of Jason Scroggin and Akari Takebayashi who are also working as architects and designers while teaching at the University of Kentucky "Design Office Takebayashi Scroggin (D.O.T.S.)".


Scaffolding and working staff under construction of the work. You can see that it is quite large even compared with surrounding people and equipment.


Since it is assembled only with a binding band, independence is difficult, and it is installed by fishing with a wire passed to the ceiling.


I will connect the binding band in a crisp manner.


Looking from inside it constitutes a complex and strange pattern.


At first it is like making rings like this and connecting it to make it big.


The remaining edge will be visible on something's feet.


I will draw up a drawing in 3D and use it to write a development drawing.


The spectator who touches it unintentionally. Even if it is set as a work of art, it seems to be somewhat difficult to touch even if it is not forbidden, but seems to be releasing the charm of touching in spite of being shaped like a big polar bear.
