st be an extraordinary, unusual, incredible,
unbelievable, one
of a
kind, particular, weird, never-seen-before ...... The list
of
adjectives and phrases describing this construction could be
endless,
however none of these words would characterize it properly.
Maybe
except for two words: volatile and ephemeral.
Maybe.
Maybe these words could be the right words, provided that
any words
can be the proper words; words are never proper, words can
only
destroy, deform, distort.... OK then, let it be volatile,
ephemeral....
Imagine then a huge space
truss. As vast as a football pitch. Even more vast. Much
bigger.
Maybe as big as the meadow I can see right now through the
truss of
leafless branches and twigs. And a supple one. Not a stiff
one.
Bending and undulating ....... Well, maybe a stiff one?
Whatever it
would be like, it would be transparent. Totally transparent,
but
visible. Clearly visible, so to give us a chance to see all
joints,
members, crossings. It-is-but-looks-as-if-it-is-not...
Like a flying carpet which
has stopped and hovers right above our heads. A flying roof
which is
hovering, but is not hanging, since there are no ropes, no
strings,
no invisible threads, nothing like that. It is just
HOVERING.
A self-supporting structure. A self-hanging structure. A
self-hovering construction. No pillars. No lines. No
propellers.
