Summary:
Volatile or Collapsed Space presents architectural installations by architect Sabine von Fischer. Working since 2004 under the name "Diaphanarch", Sabine von Fischer transfers terms like "diaphanous" and "prismatic" into space and tests them within. She understands diaphanous architecture as an experiment that undermines technical, aesthetic and economic conditions of space. Her works, in the form of drawings and texts – range from concept and criticism to construction. Further, they deal with visual versus audible space and the polarity between mass and horizon. Documented in drawings and photographs, works included in the book are the metal mesh and foam-core installation "Sonic Barriers" (awarded with the Swiss Art Prize 2004) on the exploration of interferences in sound and image as well as a work made from colored caoutschouk, corrugated cardboard and tubes, that integrates theoretical constructs on the event horizon into ist wavy material shape.
