Flux Cocoon, Switzerland

Flux Cocoon, Lausanne, Switzerland

Flux cocoon by Allegory is a winning project as a part of the the city’s first light festival, the Lausanne Lumières. The instillation is situated at a crossing of vertical and horizontal movements, the concept draws on an abstraction of a knot created by the crossing of pedestrian’s virtual trace at this precise point.
