Process

The process began with a brief, intuitive investigation of a specific site at Pratt Institute — a transitional passage, neither room nor destination, suspended between a communal space and a corridor. Working within a short time frame of fifteen minutes, the intention was to momentarily shift attention toward this everyday in-between. Using only a transparent trash bag, air, and the existing infrastructure, the form was inflated and gently lodged between exposed pipes, allowing it to inhabit a space usually overlooked. What followed was not a conclusion, but an opening. The project unfolded into a deeper inquiry into emptiness and suspension — into how absence can be made visible, how air, void, and the spaces between things hold presence. This “nowhere” became the site of attention: a fragile condition where form momentarily appears, and from which everything begins.
