URBAN FABRIC
Artists: Roudhah Al Mazrouei, Gerald Jason Cruz, and Jennifer Tsai
New York University Abu Dhabi students Roudhah Al Mazrouei, Gerald Jason Cruz and Jennifer Tsai formed a collective to combine their shared expertise in civil engineering, architecture and visual arts to create a unique and intricate work of design.
Artists’ Statement
Urban Fabric is a series of four sculptures resembling pieces of thread. These forms are intertwined and interlaced into the ground, turning the physical environment around the art piece into a canvas that the thread is woven into, linking each piece together. The installation is designed in a way that encourages interaction as it seeks to create a dynamic and thought-provoking space.
