Web Exclusive: Letter Cloud
Letter Cloud by Julia Jamrozik and Coryn Kempster
A permanent public artwork titled ?Letter Cloud? by Coryn Kempster and Julia Jamrozik has been installed in the Clareview Public Library in Edmonton, Alberta.
The project is composed of 742 powder-coated aluminum letters from different alphabets systematically hung from a network of metal rods and cables above the stacks of the library. Each of the letters is 10cm tall while the entire work is 2m tall, 3m wide and 4m long.
Ephemeral and porous, yet precise and solid, ?Letter Cloud? is an abstract mass and a direct reference to printed matter. It is also a representation of community demographics, with each of the alphabets used by the population of Edmonton proportionally represented in the project. Julia Jamrozik and Coryn Kempster are Canadian designers and artists. Collaborating since 2003, they endeavour to create spaces, objects and situations that interrupt the ordinary in a critically engaging and playful way. Julia is an Assistant Professor and Coryn is an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Architecture at the University at Buffalo SUNY. Previously, Coryn was an Architect at Herzog & de Meuron and a Project Director at Harry Gugger Studio in Basel, Switzerland. Julia was also an Architect at Herzog & de Meuron and taught architectural design studios at the ETH in Zurich.
