FRAME

BY MARS

NARRATIVE

Frame transforms the most mundane item, the Shuffle board Puck, into an abstract sculptural form by a play of repetition and color. Vintage pucks of red and blue are used in a concentric pattern to create a wall feature in the Sports Lounge. The pucks are adhered with push pins welded onto the pucks. This pieces floats on a large white wall filled with natural daylight so the shadows from the pucks dance along the wall as the sun moves across the space throughout the day. MaRS is known for their custom installations on projects in particular of giving second lives to ordinary objects. Walls are seen as giant canvases whether a commission from a renowned international artist or an inventive use of everyday objects transformed into a repetitive play of grid and pattern. Beauty is seen on repetition and play of shadow and light resulting in delight and surprises.
