spiderman's lair
'tape installation' is a site specific installation by croation design collective, foruse/numen. showcased at the DMY international design festival in Berlin, the entire installation is yes, made entirely out of tape -700 rolls of adhesive tape no less. the collective has descrived their work as 'parasitic' and reminiscent of UFOs - i just think it looks like spiderman's lair.
here's a little note on the construction process: the tendons of multiple layers of transparent adhesive tape were firstly stretched in between the constructions. the following continuous wrapping of tendons resulted in a complex, amorphous surface through a process similar to the growth of organic forms.
definitely do check out their website to see the rest of their tape installations (particularly love the viennese piece) : http://www.foruse.info
