As part of the Bloomsbury Festival, I was invited by the curators of SSE Space to create an installation interpreting a portion of the Greek myth of Daedalus and Icarus along with around 20 other teams of artists, architects and designers. Working together with Ifigeneia Liangi and Amelia Leeson, I created an inflated pair of wing-like forms, anchored to a timber framework which formed a doorway to an unoccupied shop on Store Street.
The project was a great opportunity to test out a new building technology. Much was learned about the manufacture and fragility of inflatable structures, which we'll certainly be putting to good use in the future. The day itself saw lots of amazing temporary structures, interactive games and performances in the street. For more information on the project, see
