# Ghostly Pavilion Art The Weightless Pull Installation Temporaily Transforms a Pathway By Deborah Kim | Published 2011-07-24 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weightless-pull References: [openbuildings](http://openbuildings.com/buildings/weightless-pull-profile-41110) & [newyork.superfront.org](http://newyork.superfront.org/) For a limited time, an [empty passageway between two warehouse buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radius-transformation-pavilion) in New York has been upscaled by the Weightless Pull installation. The structure was created by Architecture CO for the residents of New York. The installation was crafted from nylon rope and plastic and was deemed an experiment of scale and field. The designers drew out a projection of what the installation might look like, and they estimated it would be 80 feet high and 30 feet wide. Their calculations were close to the projections, but ultimately the space and nature of the area deemed what the appropriate height was for the project. The [free-flowing plastic strips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curly-cube) move to the rhythm of the wind and its surrounding environment, but the installation looks especially stunning when a large gust comes and picks the strips up off the ground. The designers used 18,000 feet of plastic wrap and 600 knots to create the Weightless Pull installation. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Upscaling Installations:** Opportunity for creating large-scale art installations to transform public spaces. - **Interactive Design:** Potential for incorporating movement and interaction into architectural and artistic designs. - **Sustainable Materials:** Demand for using eco-friendly materials like nylon rope and plastic in creative projects. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Innovation in creating immersive and captivating experiences through large-scale installations. - **Architecture:** Opportunity to integrate dynamic and interactive elements into architectural designs. - **Sustainable Manufacturing:** Expansion of eco-friendly material production to meet the growing demand in various industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Resin Gravity Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-great-tree.md) - [Metal-Wrapped Exhibition Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trace-architecture.md) - [Interactive Architectural Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-landscape.md) - [Hanging Portal-Like Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duo-installation.md) - [Inflatable Vibrant Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-dancer.md) - [3D-Printed Ethereal Floating Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prairie-cord.md) - [Performance-Driven Public Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fourth-wall.md) - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Perforated Light-Passing Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circle-pavilion.md)
