The Chart Art Fair in Copenhagen has created its own pop-up gallery designed by architects Emil Dupuis Bernild, Mikkel Harboe Wolff, Jonas Sarantaris, and Shwan Soran Ali featuring the winning entrants' Breeze installation. It is designed by Dupuis Bernild, Harboe Wolff, Sarantaris and Ali.
The pavilion is created from standard timber materials with a highlight on the roof created by recycled ship sales secured by jute rope. The Director of the art fair, Quottrup Silbermann shares the design process with Dezeen, stating "When I started, I wanted to look at the format with new eyes. We were looking for architects to challenge the traditional gallery format. I thought it could be an interesting way of showing art in another way."
