Story of Development: Open Art 2018
Creating a virtual space is a work of art in itself. The Open Art exhibition will be taking place in a fictional (and improbable) gallery on the Moon.
There is no need to worry about engineering, costs or logistics with a virtual gallery space, so why not shoot for the stars!
After deciding the location for exhibition, we look for images and designs that might inspire the style of the gallery. The gallery will be within a lunar base, set inside a mountainous crater. Some of the inspiration from the base and its landscape has been taken from the images shown here.
Earth – This is a chance to have a unique perspective and to see our planet from a distance.
Inca landscaping – The stepped amphitheatres and settlements built by the Incas in South America give a clue how humans might shape the ground around a lunar base.
Futursitic Architecture – Within the moon base there are a few human structures, one of which is inspired by this real building on Earth.
Alien Geometry – Although crop circles aren’t actually made by aliens (?) they have a very interesting geometric arrangement, using spirals and circles. The layout of our lunar base is inspired by these designs.
