// ON ROCKS

This project depicts the quality of transience and permanence through the medium of shadows. Dependent on the projection of light, shadows can change and disappear in shape, and the concept of our intervention was to make this medium of shadow permanent. By conceptualizing the shadow of various rock artifacts as a surface, the second degree of forms grows from the newly created surface, dissolves the original artifact into the ground, and manipulates the process loops to grow and dissolve the form subsequently. As a result, the mesh's faces and vertices flatten as the rocks and shadows simultaneously oscillate between a permanent and transient state.
