arROPAme (wrap me up) / Polytechnical University of Valencia

Posted in Events_Interviews - Events_Interviews by * FORMAKERS

Our material was second-hand clothes.

We create three pergolas in the campus of the University, playing with the shadows like a triangular draughtboard, and the colour in the t-shirts as degradation.

The sun and the wind make the rest.

In order to collect the clothes, we create some posters and place them around the University, and the people donate so many clothes we didn't know where to store them.

One of our first ideas was to donate all the clothes later for an ONG, so we couldn't sew or destroy the clothes.

We came up with a simple solution using flanges and ropes. One of our members has a big knowledge on sailing knots, so we used it as an advantage.

We mount the installation in two days.

And it lasted one week, despite of the rain we had two days.

Our budget was minimum around 15 euros for the connection of the clothes.
