The Psychoforum is a set of hexagonal panels that can be assembled into a wide variety of multipurpose spaces. This piece was originally part of a traveling group show and functioned as an autonomous zone within the larger exhibition. At each venue, a different guest curator mounted an exhibit of his/her choosing within the Psychofurum, and thus its shape, form and contents changed. The mutating surface of the Psychoforum facilitates walls, benches, niches, shelves, and plinths for displaying artwork, films, books, etc.

A glass display containing drawings, models, collages, found objects and charts. The vitrine exhibited research materials which explored the notion of chemical architecture: how is matter organized? Which were the microscopic and macroscopic processes involved? Analogies to processes such as reaction, precipitation, crystallization, emulsion, combustion, and the flux between stable and unstable, states both in the configuration of spaces and our psychological perception.

If a Room has square spaces              the Capula shall be round

If a Room has rigid walls              the Capula shall be elastic

If a Room divides the inside from the outside              the Capula shall be permeable

If a Room is grounded              the Capula shall hover

If a Room is steady              the Capula shall rock or swing

If a Room has walls that block the light              the Capula shall radiate the light

If a Room creates a fixed field of vision              the Capula shall be kinetic

If a Room needs furniture              the Capula will turn itself into furniture

If a Room hides from the view              the Capula allows a glimpse

If a Room is an ensemble of parts              the Capula shall be a continuum

If a Room is steady            the Capula shall rock or swing

If a Room has walls that block the light            the Capula shall radiate the light

If a Room creates a fixed field of vision            the Capula shall be kinetic

If a Room needs furniture            the Capula will turn itself into furniture

If a Room hides from the view            the Capula allows a glimpse

If a Room is an ensemble of parts            the Capula shall be a continuum
