Elemental is a
series of publications exploring how variance in extreme weather conditions and
slight shifts in geographic position affects architecture. Created during a
harsh Canadian winter these large-format photographic woks speak of the
relationship between architecture and it's surrounding environment.
The work extends from the ideology of a house, inspired by Japanese Architect
Go Hasegawa’s basic principles of a house, taken from “thinking, making
architecture, living” contemporary architecture concept series volume 11.
Hasegawa
speaks of the house (dwelling) which will consist of 4 walls and a roof to
shelter us from the elements, the sun, rain, ice and snow, a door to enter and
exit, and windows to observe the external environment and to let light in. This
is where my interest lie, how the internals of a house can be used to
accurately survey the surrounding environment.
During the stay temperatures ranged between +4 to -35 Celsius.
Elemental 1:1 documents these temperature shifts.
