Serpentine Pavilion 2015

The Serpentine Gallery is hosting their 15th Serpentine Pavilion this year. Internationally renowned artist to create and deliver an architectural structure that will take 300 square metres in the Pavilion Space in a space of up to 6 months, which will become a space for learning, debate and recreation. No budget is required for the Pavilion as it is funded by sponsorships and through the sale of the Pavilion. The aim is to introduce contemporary artists and architects to a wider audience. This year the Pavilion was designed by selgascano (founded by José Selgas and Lucía Cano) with the practice formed in Madrid in 1998.

The Pavilion is made with steel and multi-coloured fluorine-based polymer to play on the simplest forms of "form, light, shadow and colour" which focussed on visitors' experience. This is apparent in the whole design where light comes through the structure as it plays on the forms of the architecture. The architecture takes on different forms in fluid waves to minimalistic strips, giving more to explore the very fabric and essence of creativity in the colours and layers.
