“Untitled” Zaha Hadid

 

Title of Artwork: Untitled

Artist: Zaha Hadid

“ I have always been interested in the concept of fragmentation and with the ideas of abstraction and explosion, deconstructing ideas of repetitiveness and mass production.”

  • Minimal use of right angles
  • Incorporates curvilinear shapes/segments into mesh to straight lines
  • Personal artwork (primarily futuristic paintings) and essays inspire architectural work
  • Hand media is instrumental in creative process
  • Patterns and forms emerge from seemingly nonsensical images
  • Highly influenced by artist, Kazimir Malevich
  • Works at multiple scales
  • Curve often bisects plan

Effects:

  • Filter light and frame view
  • Intentional circulation
  • Interaction/moving parts (changeable plan)
  • Spatial dichotomies: heavy/light, high/low, inside/outside (temperature)
  • Unconventional shape/form (minimal use of right angles)
