two Vitrine rope works

Hi again, Here's two full scale mockups of vitrine works. The ropes will be painted and shaped etc.
The first is a regular one, 200cm x 200cm x 65cm. the Second is the same except it's been opened out to turn it into a kind of see through wall.

I have not been able to stop thinking about this video of soldiers taking over the museum in cairo during the protests:

I guess i'm interested in the way this and these vitrine works relate to a transparent kind of architecture we could create in the space. (see next post) also the way this transparency might relate to the process based work christian is talking about. Maybe this transparency hints at the failing of things, the degradation of rule when something is not fully stated using the entire language of conventions that we familiar with?
