Wind is shapeless. The work attempts to give form to the invisible wind through gauze fabric and points of light. Shape of Winds is a data visualization kinetic installation that captures real-time local weather data (or viewer position), converting it through computer software into fan and particle visuals transformed into kinetic energy. The kinetic energy influences wind force and projected visuals, sculpting gauze fabric into wave-like dance movements.
