Mask (Architecture)

For this project, I attempted to replicate the Chords Bridge located in Jerusalem and designed by Santiago Calatrava. I started by cutting the white cardboard to make the roadway and the supporting column. I then reinforced these pieces with wire and hot glue. Next, I sewed twenty one pieces of string through the center column and aligned the string evenly on both sides. Finally, I connected the cables to the road making sure to balance all of the string with the same amount of tension before trimming the edges. I used a cloth to secure the bridge to my head in order to wear the bridge.

  1. Very playful and well crafted, an unusual choice for a headpiece/mask but effective. The view where we see the vertical element of your bridge-mask is the most representative as well as the most interesting.
