Screens of Society and Space As a Middle East ar=st, I wanted to show my cri=cism of the issue of gender divisions and limita=ons in society, and highlight the need for breaking the boundaries within both architectural designs and socie=es. I looked cri=cally at the issue of screens in architectural and metaphoric realms. Whilst screens can be viewed as posi=ve u=litarian objects in space, for instance as a func=onal or decora=ve divider screen within interior space that add privacy to it, from my personal observa=ons they are hugely used as barriers between people, especially between genders and reduce people’s interac=on in the space. I explored the u=lity of screens as tools of segrega=on on three realms; Individual, domes=c and social.
I set out to make screen models using different materials such as metal, wood, and fabric, embedded in wax. The process of mel=ng the wax in all models was aimed to symbolise the possibility of breaking manmade boundaries and divisions. Each model was an evolu=on of the previous model. In the next stage I experimented with screens in a manner that segregated people in a public place, allowing the par=cipants, the opportunity to experience gender segrega=on, and raise awareness of this personally important issue. The final outcome was introducing a new material for divider screens and a series of short film demonstra=ng my cri=cal performance.
