The fluid fabric is composed of simple materials: polyethylene tubing to circulate fluid, and transparent fishing wire for structure. The tubing allows for flexibility as well as contains a void for fluid to pass through the fabric. To animate this fabric, a mechanical heart (two small pumps) supplies the fabric with fluid and air. When this occurs, the fabric animates the coloured water and air into dynamic patterns and temporal colour gradients.
The fabric is anchored as a translation of the bodies systems deconstructed of its materials and perceived for their immaterial mechanistic characteristics. My fabric attempts to recreate these phenomena through machine and architecture bringing with it the sense of vital warmth.
