The use of ultra-thin metallic mesh lends a lightweight appearance to the structure while allowing for kinetic movement. Responsive to air currents, the individual components rotate gently, producing slow, continuous motion.<\/p>\n<p>all images by <a href=\"https:\/\/vincentleroy.com\/\">Vincent Leroy Studio<\/a> and Xu Zhang<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">Vincent Leroy imagines a giant flight of kinetic flowers<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Material selection and form work together to engage with light and atmosphere.
