Michelle Grasso Origami Architecture visually reconstructs the original, material form of modern Sydney buildings into dissolution based, celestial beings. By using editing as a sculptural medium, the captured footage of each individual building is layered and manipulated to aesthetically characterise monstrous body parts and facial features. This dissolutive act of immaterialising buildings into body parts, and facial features obscures the distinctiveness of architecture as a material form, and disperses architectural space from structural function and effectiveness.
