Steel Flexing

Convergence is a site-specific sculpture for Global Switch’s Paris Data Centre. It was produced during 2010-2011 between Sydney, London and Paris. This has been an ambitious project, two years in the making and utilising 370 metres of steel, realised thanks to intelligent modelling software and advanced fabrication techniques.

Developing out of the building fabric, Convergence is the physical representation of the systems of the building. The complexity of the data centre is revealed as the nervous system and arteries of the building. The installation condenses the logic of the building and impels it throughout the lobby and atrium spaces. It offers a dynamic and intuitive approach to the space, employing the actual services of the building and transforming its systems into an artwork.

Transmission is a site specific sculpture for Moreton Bay Regional Council, produced during 2013-2014 in Sydney and Brisbane. Utilising 150 metres of steel, realised thanks to intelligent modelling software and advanced fabrication techniques.

Drawn from a fractured ground plane and connecting into the building, the artwork describes a transmission of knowledge, history and place. As the tubes rupture, a boundless transmission is enabled. Transmission suggests the knowledge and heritage of the site, through past, present and future inhabitations.
