About the artwork

Diaphanous Charms is a series of parametric art installations by Asli Alin, in which iridescent colour effect acrylic sheets are assembled together.

Inspired by the inherent intelligence displayed in nature’s architectural systems, Diaphanous Charms mimic nature’s ability to create complex structures using simple elements. The artwork represents growth; connections made of smaller units assembled to form larger and stronger structures, much like how our communities are built by individuals. Diaphanous Charms become more colourful with the addition of each new unit, similar to how each individual adds to their community.
