room-universe
The room and the universe comes as split personalities that are yet to be constructed. As the fragments of the room are assembled, the resulting space manifest itself as an enclosed entity while rendering the universe dismantled.
THE ROOM
The room will be a montage from series of spaces traversed by a person who moves move in and out of the city. On one scale it comprised of endless labyrinth of spaces of the everyday in a building: the classroom, the supermarket, the tube station, the interior of car. On the flip side is the array of exterior faces: building facades, windows, entrance door, etc. This split defines our experience of the city that increasingly becomes endless terrain of fragmentary spaces. The room is assembled to form a limit, and as it folds into an enclosure, it disrupts the city on the flip side.
THE UNIVERSE
The universe is the result of the assembly of the room. In his universe, the boundless flows and trajectories of the city is momentary interjected by the room. The universe, in its stillness and fragmented state allowed the individual in the room, within his self-imposed alienation, to construct his own universe.

Obviously the text is way too abstract even for myself. It was much clearer this morning as I sketched the image but midway I decided that the image becomes more of a model and to some extent becomes yet another version of my re-con sans the characters. I will need to refine what I am trying to achieve here. Will re-model.
