OVERVIEW

In the Round is a large-scale urban installation constructed from perforated fabric stretched and twisted between two ornate profiles and suspended over a major intersection in downtown Houston. The overall form is a rippled cuff with contrasting interior and exterior surfaces. Viewers on the ground level are presented with In the Round’s inner facade, while viewers on the elevated walkway engage with its exterior facade.
