Conceived as an experiment in the parametric evolution of form, the installation interrogates the boundaries between private and public space, between enclosure and security, and between emergence within the urban context and mergence with the natural environment.

This permanent installation—reusing the building blocks of the Behala Notun Dal festival pavilion—extends the ephemeral into permanence, reinterpreting a festive expression as a grounded architectural gesture.

Constructed from steel in its varied material states—rigid structural members, transparent mesh, and reflective stainless surfaces—the work responds dynamically to its context. It invites the public not merely to view, but to inhabit and experience an evolving spatial narrative—open, inclusive, and constantly shifting.
