12.02.10: The winning competition entry for the Art Basel Miami Beach and Creative Time Oceanfront project was the Exhale Pavilion, by Phu Hoang Office and Rachely Rotem Studio. The project created a public art venue for the annual Art Basel Miami Beach contemporary art fair. The “floating ropes” installation is activated by a wind-speed sensor, and a hammock provides space for the public to lounge and swing beneath the canopy.

The Exhale pavilion uses two types of rope to create diverse interactive environments. Some ropes are reflective while others are phosphorescent; together they produce a canopy that shimmers and glows in the night.

Programs included video and performance artists as well as D.J. dance programs.
