"A dense lattice of anthropomorphic figures and fancies connects buildings to bodies. One metaphorical strain will construe the body as fabric, an edifice, a temple, a structure that holds together, tenement, and that lifts, eminence. (...) Air has traditionally been, not the antagonist of the building , but its unobserved complement. Building, like utterances, are articulations of the air." Steven Connor in Building Breathing Spaces
Air is often associated with an empty space, a void. Many architects and artists, however, have developed strategies, to use air as spatial and conceptual tool. There exists a dynamic aspect of spatial investigations related to air and pneumatic structures. Air has the potential to form information and communication space in which we operate - air becomes a medium and membrane on and in which one can act.
