Today, Our studio @gt2p proudly celebrates 15 years of Paracrafting, exploring the intersection of art, science, and design. To mark this milestone, we are thrilled to present one of our most recent works: Shhh Pavilion: The Hopekeeper 2023-2024 This sculptural landmark pavilion, commissioned by IQHQ, seamlessly merges with RaDD Life, symbolically and functionally integrating into San Diego’s waterfront landscape. The pavilion’s three-legged funicular structure forms two grand arches: one welcoming visitors to the San Diego waterfront, and the other framing the RaDD campus. Naturally transforming into a stage for the park, it enables activities such as outdoor concerts, theater, speeches, and community celebrations—nurturing connection and creativity in the heart of San Diego. Inspired by childhood memories, the natural world, and its relationship with mathematics, we created this structure through a three-dimensional polygonal tessellation. Its shell-like form, composed of barnacle-like structural elements, recalls childhood games at the beach, where hope felt infinite. Nature, as a bridge between art and science, weaves seamlessly into the piece, creating a permanent installation that invites viewers to explore the interplay between memory, imagination, discovery and to trigger activities at the public space of San Diego. This project was made possible thanks to the commission of IQHQ, the curatorial vision of the great @annberchtold , and the remarkable fabrication and installation of our production partners @ignitionarts . We are especially grateful to @angelicasem , who was on the advisory curatorial committee on this project, sparking this beautiful collaboration with Ann. Over these 15 years, we have been fortunate to work with countless inspiring partners and supporters. A special thanks to @friedman_benda and @anavaprojects for being part of this adventure and believing in our vision. Here’s to many more years of creating and exploring! Finally thanks to @marcachile and @prochilerm for supporting our visit to USA. #gt2P #RaDDArtWalk #FriedmanBenda #IgnitionArts #PublicArt #marcachile #prochile #SanDiego #parametricdesign #paracrafting #art

@gt2p Remolten N2 Self Organization Mirrors belong to the first series of Remolten Solid Lava Technique Objects. The initial shape of each piece is given by pouring volcanic rock sand over a horizontal surface, creating a geography of intersected volcanic piles (or concavities, depending the case, please watch the video). This sand pouring process, inspired by the sand form-finding experiments made by Frei Otto for his tensile structures, naturally creates bisectors between the piles; this fact allows that each piece can be digitally programmed through Voronoi diagrams or in another way can be freely improvised like an expressionist painting. The sand grains get organized by gravity till they reach an equilibrium state forming piles of 35 deg (angle of repose). Once the piece is shaped is carefully taken into the kiln to become the piece in one single rock piece again. The surface and color control are the ones learnt in the previous Remolten process (specific firing curves inside the kiln), where we can get bubbled pieces and smooth ones, and of course, every leftover of the process can be ground till sand point and can be used again. This way of making will allow us to create different objects typologies like furniture, 3d murals, tiles or objects like the mirrors that will be released today at @thesalonny with @friedman_benda Gallery (Nov 11-15, 2021). The mirror color can be found in bronze, chrome and multicolored acid treatment.
