The pavilion seeks to spatially embody the periphery, the in-between space of the known and yet to be discovered. True curiosity and the creation of art resides within this threshold, as our potential for growth flourishes here.

Drawing from ancient architectural traditions, the pavilion seamlessly weaves the inside and outside together, serving as a mediator between various states of transition, invoking a deep sense of awareness.

The porosity of the materials and spatial organization creates a lightness in the presence of the pavilion, freeing up movement and dissolving the isolation and alienation often associated with the experience of the white cube. This ensures accessibility and foster exchange between the public, art and artist.

Furthermore, the structure provides a rhythm that anchors the pavilion to its classical context. Exposing the structure, creates an awareness of the inner workings of architecture, aligning itself with the contemporary wish for unmasking the processes, supporting the desire for transparency and simplicity.
