Watercolor wheel

2019 / Client: Nike / Project assistant: Karla Rosales, Isabella Artadi

A three meter color wheel comprising fifty two paper sculptures. Each sculpture is produced with watercolors, paper and sewing thread in diverse compositions that evoke different emotions.

The concept was based on the statement “Go Bigger”; thus a piece was created that could represent this not only in the way it looks but also in the way that it is produced, using huge containers full of watercolor that allowed the immersion of the paper rolls at different heights several times, producing diverse shades of the same color. The sewing thread was added in some sculptures, a detail reminiscent of Nike products.

Moreover, there was a Color Workshop where the participants had the chance to create different color combinations on socks through the same technique used for the exhibited sculpture.
