Photo GALLERY
The conceptual project
The design of the exhibition place.
Exhibition pavillion of the photo gallery has basement shapes of which are build on the contours of the equilateral polygons, which in its turn correspond five elements.
These figures are typical for the philosophy of Plato, in whose honor they received the name "Platonic Solids". Creation of harmonic space where all elements correlate and complete each other became the main challenge of the project.
These five Platonic solids are ideal, primal models of crystal patterns that occur throughout the world of minerals in countless variations. These are the only five regular polyhedra, that is, the only five solids made from the same equilateral, equiangular polygons. They are geometrical forms which are said to act as a template from which all life springs. The aesthetic beauty and symmetry of the Platonic solids have made them a favorite subject of geometers for thousands of years. They are named after the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who theorized that the classical elements were constructed from the regular solids. To the Greeks, these solids symbolized fire, earth, air, spirit (or ether) and water.
