A twisted staircase creates perplexity andalso allows 360 degree
viewing conditionsfor the subjects situated in the middle.
Staircase also encourages subjects to consicously engage in
thechange of vantage point and invites them to sit d own and
observe.
Moreover, Staircase has the quality of both stage and stand, on
which the subjectbecomes the performer and the viewer at the same
time according to di erent reference frames.
The stair
case make of transparent materialsenables the transition of
viewing/being viewed of a subject.
