Taxiing

A long passageway, populated with repetitive rectangular masses arranged in such as way that they are replicating the exact seats arrangement of the flight, together with exposed skeletal structures above the shapes like a fuselage, this space is intended to recreates the atmosphere inside a plane. The repetitive manner and dullness of the space create a sense of curiousity and lost in the direction one is heading to as they walk along. The overscaled space is being excavated into the ground, having sandwiched and supported by retaining walls on both side and light filling in from above. As visitors go along the flat ground, the walls appear to be getting taller, as in they are getting deeper or smaller, unnoticed. This enhances the experience of feeling nervous.
