Star Atlas

DATE
2020

Star Atlas is a permanent public artwork embedded in the ground. Bai overlays a star-map-like structure with the site’s buildings, paths, and plot to create a ground pattern that responds to its layout. Copper, black marble, and stainless steel form a composition extending over sixty metres. Its overall configuration can be recognised from above, while walking through it brings viewers into contact with separate nodes, rings, and trajectories.
