for many reasons… mainly built from discarded materials, the object is and will remain impossible because it does not intend to comply with any built regulation… but raise the question of the unforgivable amount of waste that the building industry produces....&nbsp; the object is and will remain impossible because the intention is not to seek economic profit from the individuals using, exhibiting, singing, camping, cooking or exploring the space…&nbsp; the object is and will remain impossible because it will evolve, shrink or expand as the space is used and shared…&nbsp; the object is and will remain impossible because the access in not evident, nor does it intend to be... we made a number of proposals… but we quickly adapted due to readily available materials gathered… <img

an exercise where we explored architectural gestures with a simple palette extracted from the colours we found in the land… a flower, foliage, clouds, bark… sintetized, abstracted, disjoint and then remodelled into a flat surface… it was imperative that the background expressed its materiality, wood being inherently expressive was the material of choice…giving us explicit hints that would ripple on the atelier’s name....&nbsp; and as we thought about the scale, standardization came to our minds, how we are taught to fit in a mould, a size, when evidently we are all different, bigger than the bounding perimetrs we are allowed to inhabit… so we thought of dynamic shapes intending to extend past the boundaries of the flat surface...we knew that this collection would be the impossible gallery

atelierkodama.com https://atelierkodama.com/vow-bow bow/vowwe have concluded that the attitude and position that currently best represents the vast majority of us... is head down… once upon a time we looked up to the stars in search of meaning and connection… created myths and found ways to geolocate ourselves in time and space... we’d like to ask if technology is merging into a new type of spirituality as we curate our media avatars?... does our constant bowing resemble an oppressive weight over our heads?... and as we witness the dissolution of choices like martial promises and celibacy… does the new vowing consist of infinite scrolls and predatory visual consumption? do you know there are meditation apps that will chant with you? did you know there’s an app that assists in pointing to the qibla? do you feel the weight of your actions/desires/clicks; or is your thumb the new guide through complex networks of (mis)information and (lack of) interactions… not long ago we read william blake's auguries of innocence and were pleased with his quasi prophetic words… ...hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour… yes! with our preferred devices one can virtually travel to the farthest corners of the cosmos... from one app to the other, videos to emails, important to irrelevant, all will blend, time will blur… with some of those questions and ideas we decided to act, we gathered strength from each other and faded our identities to materialise our protest… we sketched, modelled, carved and sanded while juggling time between paid jobs and our passions… our message resonated with our dissonant backgrounds and our migrant situations always informed by different cosmological shades, shaped the piece… we remembered thích quang duc’s last peaceful and powerful position and adapted it to our icon… used fifty-two plywood sheets as a symbolic intention while paying respect to the aztec myth of the new fire celebrated every fifty-two years… three pieces representing one individual as in the christian doctrine of the trinity… intricate lines as if topographies met bathymetries in an allegorical and introspective allusion to the spiritual connectivity felt on a psychotropic vision... one individual with no defined sexual organs, a self portrait of us all... now… regain your sight and defiantly look up… connect, discuss, assimilate, create, act...! *capital letters are not used on purpose to avoid hierarchies amongst words. *this piece was created to engage with a wider audience, it was prompted after listening to a radio add and has now been submitted to participate in the william blake prize for the casula powerhouse in sydney. <img width="5069" height="2580" width_o="5069" height_o="2580"

laneway proposals we do not claim to be from here or there... the only position we assume is that of assimilation... we grew up in a place, decided to be elsewhere and currently spend most of our time kilometers away from the networks that shaped our minds... so the questions are... do we inhabit the land we walk with the baggage we have been carrying? or can we become the land we step on?... to what extent do we understand it?... if we do so... what can we do with all that information?... how can we process it?... we always find an exuberant number of similarities, between the myths we grew up with and the myths that always will be... many years ago in melbourne we stumbled upon a book... about a reality or a myth that took place in a jungle during the nineties... from those words, something resonates with our steps today... it reads as it follows “...together but separately and in agreement...”and we intend to start the conversation with a series of intentions that depict dancing... we feel dancing is a personal and free expression that comes from deep within... and this precise moment when dancing has become prohibited, regulated and unauthorised... we celebrate movement at the rhythms of whatever we find most important... whether it might be questions, songs, stories... if it is meaningful, it moves our limbs, our minds... so in a land that always was and always will be... the dance will be danced as the geographies of scars merge onto our skin... &nbsp; &nbsp; <img width="3957" height="5074" width_o="3957" height_o="5074"

resembles a lattice, it portrays a woman in the foetal position... femenine power in a calmed and unthreatening position, her heart wraps the iconic bennelong's object as her eyes witness how north and south of the city merge... a geography of scars... the piece will be propped off the wall... we want to celebrate the residual space of the blocked entry to the building... a gift from the city and its constant changes provides a niche for the piece... almost as one of those altars we remembered from our childhood where religiousness met our eyes and ears... what have we done with our land? we will not stop to leave traces of our behaviour over the land... but we are deeply connected to all the networks we see and inhabit... as long as we walk this land opportunities will arise for us to do… <img width="2220" height="3245" width_o="2220" height_o="3245" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6d3b20b7b70cb99fcb9335e238872c498f1b700653e7445dfad254bdb03c2066/gaia.jpg"

move to the rhythms of caroline rothwell’s youngsters in materiality... the reasons are simple, those pieces can be accessed with three hundred and sixty degrees of freedom... from far away the sculpture could resemble an organic nature like branches... but a closer examination will show a folded closeup of sydney's streetscape with an overlay, you might recognize the lines of a foot... and we celebrate pedestrian streets and sculpture conversing with urban and architectural scales... may our steps into the future be clear and mark our landscape in gentle ways... so, we virtually do, propose... because by doing we transgress, we reach one more eyes, time becomes a continuum... we have conversations with those who are alive and have not crossed our paths and those who left... we will use their continual momentum to increase the inertia that fuels our actions and lights our heads on fire... <img width="1142" height="668" width_o="1142" height_o="668"

of sol lewitt's mural on one end of the street... this pieces come out as we analysed the streetscape, we extruded the outline of the streets and subtracted the geometry to emphasize the similarity with the shapes in the background... the sculptures are attached to the wall. we were compelled to move to the rhythms of australia’s square dance hall to find seidler, calder, nervi and lewitt... the reasons are simple, the piece can be accessed with three hundred and sixty degrees of freedom... and as if sol’s words reached our brains...&nbsp; “the idea becomes a machine that makes art”... so, we virtually do, propose... because by doing we transgress, we reach one more eyes, time becomes a continuum... we have conversations with those who are alive and have not crossed our paths and those who left... we will use their continual momentum to increase the inertia that fuels our actions and lights our heads on fire… <img width="1536" height="2048" width_o="1536" height_o="2048"

cast into the voids and the voids will act as frames for the steel work... depending which direction you come from, central st leads to the biggest cinema and a number of events spaces in the city... maybe once upon a time someone payed respects to the local fauna... maybe once upon a time, through that alley someone came into a building, or day dreams escaped through the windows... today, we find residual spaces... blocked doorways and windows... forgotten spaces, broken rituals...something lingers in our thoughts... wendell berry’s words... “a geography of scars”... corroboree silhouettes overlaid with sydney's lines, assimilation in progress history, the urban and ritual attempting to be in syntony… the entire design created for this work hides and only where voids exist an part of the image will be displayed… <img width="2471" height="851" width_o="2471" height_o="851"

the light boxes in the base of the building, adding screens that would display a long video broken by the space that currently separates each of the boxes.... our investigation has found that the geographies of scars are closely related to names... the majority of streets have a name in memory of notable people... landmarks have architects and now developers or brands attached to them... our video displays an oscillating object... an abstraction to the common sticker used by graffiti artists or group dynamics... the iconic, red over white sticker with black lettering... displaying "hello my name is ____" ...we pose a few ideas.... one; to start the conversation and aligned to our studio’s intention of leaving aside protagonist interactions and hierarchies... would we be less harmful in any way if we were to consider us part of a bigger interaction?... would we protect and respect as if everything belonged to us?...&nbsp; and two, in order to keep the project alive... could this "new screen" become a notice board for the passer by... there's so much we do not need to see in our environment, there is so much we miss from our context... if the piece becomes a platform, it becomes greater than the precedent... can we please let these screens be hackable? could we upload a video and have the city share it without censoring? https://atelierkodama.com/barlow-st3 Sat, 14
