the research of materials and forms


People with claustrophobia often feel claustrophobic in closed spaces and have strong symptom attacks. So I wanted to investigate the material effect of the inner walls of the closed spaces and the similar feeling.

In addition, claustrophobic patients have certain symptoms of physical discomfort when they occur, so I want to organize these symptoms and visually match them with similar materials, so that some suitable materials can be found. and form to express in the book or space.



General symptoms: Dizziness, racing heart, shaking.

If patients want to escape as soon as possible in an enclosed space, there will be traces left by slapping the walls of the enclosed space, or even punching and kicking.

Also, claustrophobic people often experience claustrophobia in elevators, so I wanted to look for a material that seemed to feel like an elevator -- something like mirror reflections, etc.


Analysis:


1.dizziness











2.racing heart







If the red silk thread is interspersed throughout the art book itself, and has a large fluctuating artistic sense, it can express the symptoms of the patient's rapid heartbeat in a closed space.



3.shaking











Books can incorporate such jitters, and cluttered lines can also become a unique style and the main form of an artist's book.


4.elevator:


The oppression of the mirror sticker is similar to the iron reflex in an elevator, which is very similar, and patients usually experience uncomfortable symptoms in such a situation. Perhaps such materials will be used in future space production to create real scenes.
