Installation

‘Interchange Pavilion’ by Studio Chris Fox is a meeting place where tracks converge, a place of interchange where paths cross. Peeling from the ground plane, geometries arc overhead to create an embracing volume; a point of confluence. Drawing inspiration from the precinct’s rail history, artist director of the of multi-disciplinary design studio Chris Fox, worked with the salient geometries of the railroad switch. This is the point at which a train can change its course, moving from one trajectory to another.

Get Out/Get In was created as an art installation for two Jackson Hole community events. The first, PARKing Day, transforms parking spaces around town into temporary public art interventions. The capacities of a parking space determined the dimensions for the Get Out/Get In structure. The second event, GLOW Nights, is a month-long must-see exhibit produced by Jackson Hole Public Art. This Teton Village event features original art installations which use colorful light as a medium to celebrate the unique phenomena found in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Artists draw inspiration from the megafauna, calderas, hot springs, and dramatic vistas that inspire.

Gold Digger is an installation that explores the world of curiosity and discovery. This was the theme of the 2021 edition of the festival “A Cel Obert”, a festival of ephemeral interventions that has been held annually since 2014 in the city of Tortosa in Catalonia. The festival aims at transforming unknown historical spaces into a stage for artistic creations and reclaiming the architectural heritage of the city through ephemeral art.

Patch-City Pavilion. The project is located at an old quarter in Guangzhou. An former primary school was once situated there, surrounded by many run-down residential buildings and apartments. The school moved away many years ago as a result of the urban modernization, and traditional market place cultures in nearby communities are disappearing. The current owner of the school building is inland Guangzhou. In order to integrate urban modernization with historical features and develop new urban street market to revitalize old communities, the client entrusts ROOI to take charge of the temporary transformation and build a landmark Pavilion as a center for street market, music festivals, product launch, cultural activities, etc.

Site-specific. A manifestation of duality expressed by the constant superposition of contrasts: instability and balance, contemporary and historical, a wall that limits and a circle that receives, the space, at once, interior and exterior, the open and the closed, signalizes, at the same time, the weight and lightness of our time.
