NOMAD |
New beginnings. New directions – and a city that is a testament to dynamic enterprise and game-changing modernism. Collaboration is no better illustrated than in Dubai, an unrivalled display of multi-culturalism. And what wonders they have achieved – the Dubai skyline is unlike any other in the world; a view into tomorrow, unique and breathtakingly cinematic. Symbolic of such growth, movement and futurism, in Nomad we find an expression of the city itself.
The aptly-named Nomad represents transience, physical and spiritual; place to place, mood to mood. Living up to its name, this project has journeyed far across the land; from the B5 Art of Living in Dubai to take centre stage as part of the first-ever Festival of Interior Design (FoID). A worthy celebration of the luxurious contemporary that Dubai has come to represent.
Nomad takes the form of a five-metre-long wave comprised of over 200 individual glass components. Each of which may be individually controlled by portable device to create an infinite variability for expression and mood; easily accessible to enhance the interactivity of the installation. Finished with a unique, trademark reflective mirrored coating, the piece showcases Beau's particular brand of theatricality – a transient piece, art-sculpture by day and spectacular light installation by night.
