Beam ("Ray") - an architectural installation from a Japanese designer and architect Ryuji Nakamura and his colleagues, recently installed in one of the art galleries in Tokyo (Japan). The Air Maze is designed to open up new possibilities of spatial perception to visitors.
The installation is part of an exhibition conceptually titled Feel and think: a new era of Tokyo fashion, which aims to showcase the work of ten young designers working in Tokyo. The exhibition will run until December 25 of this year at the Tokyo opera city art gallery.
The conceptual installation occupies an area of 886, 14 m2 and represents frames floating in the air, placed at the level of the eyes of visitors in order to create the illusion of separate parts of the space without being divided by monolithic partitions.
The suspended in the air frame supports the design of the entire room - the beams are painted with the same paint as the walls of the exhibition hall. This visual solution is intended to emphasize that the "air maze" is a continuation of the structure of the room.
The frame floating in the air creates three different areas of space: "below", "inside" and "above". Each visitor has the opportunity to choose his own individual route, discovering non-trivial visual effects and details that are often overlooked.
You can get acquainted with the work of the installation author by visiting the official website of his design studio:

The artist who operates on paper. Paper Cuts by Julene Harrison
For the most part, people learn to wield a scalpel in a medical school, and then in a medical school, they undergo long-term practice, and only then they are allowed to the patient in the operating room. But there are exceptions in life, when a scalpel becomes an instrument not of a surgeon, but of an artist, and they operate not on a person, but on paper. Such operations, however, also require a lot of practice, dexterity and talent, and all this has a British artist named Julene Harrison
