KAXEL “Spring/Summer/Autumn/Winter”

IMG SRC

KAXEL reinterprets boundaries between people and objects by playing with darkness and translucency to hide and reveal elements in a space. By switching between dark and clear “pixels,” it displays animated text and symbols to captivate viewers while giving tantalizing glimpses of products and displays in the background. Linked with a sensor, this prototype becomes an interactive media manipulating light and shadow. This dynamic display highlights how KAXEL engages viewers while producing a space. Like a calligraphed scroll, each KAXEL frames a slice of nature. Together, they form a folding screen expressing fleeting moments of beauty. Enjoy the contrasts of the inorganic KAXEL (digital) and organic plants (analog) woven together to create harmonies of animation, plants, and environment.
