Rip Curl Canyon

Rip Curl Canyon

Inspired by the waves of the ocean and the ripples of sand dunes, this unique installation transforms cardboard into a thing of beauty. The project is by designers Benjamin Ball and Gaston Nogues for an exhibition titled' The Modern West: American Landscape, 1890-1950' at Rice University Art Gallery. The project really showcases the contrast of the rough material and the smooth lines and contours achieved through stacking them side-by-side.

The project required laminating over 20,000 strips (weighing approximately eight tons) of curved, industrially die-cut corrugated cardboard in twelve days.
