swarm captures the collective logic of a flock within architectural stillness.


A 45 second video of a bird flock was processed through a freeze frame analysis, each frame mapped and spatialized to extract the vectors of movement as form. The sculpture consolidates these trajectories into a single instant, rendering time as structure rather than sequence.

​

Standard aluminium trusses, modules of industrial display and performance, become the medium through which this ephemeral pattern acquires weight. Their functional neutrality grounds the organic complexity of the flock in a language of construction and measurement. The result is not a representation of birds in motion but a suspension of motion itself, an infrastructure of what has already passed.

​

swarm turns an event of collective behaviour into a architectural memory, where direction, density and dispersal are re encoded as spatial relations. It asks how movement might persist beyond duration and how the architectures of industry can hold the residue of the natural.
