We explored the mechanics of woven networks for the design and making of a dynamic and static human scale performance piece. This workshop at the IE University was organized by Prof. Wesam Al- Asali and brought together architecture students and the amazing basket weaver Carlos Fontales-Ortiz. Together, we explored how bending, buckling, stretch and drape in rod networks coupled with traditional basket weaving techniques can produce installations that can perform when loaded. The workshop culminated in an interesting performance at the Creativity Center at the IE University in Segovia, a UNESCO World Heritage City, Spain.
