Nassia Inglessis - Disobedience

Chiara Blissett

'Disobedience' is a kinetic wall that challenges our perception of architecture as something static, or emotionally inert. The sculpture was built over 9 months by Nassia and a team of engineers. The piece is 56 feet long, about 10 feet tall, and can expand up to 5 feet as it engulfs its visitors when they walk through it.
