Nicola Chi-Hay Chan (b. 1994 in London) is a multidisciplinary artist, architectural designer, and maker. Her work seeks to blur the boundaries between art and architecture, investigating rituals and cultural norms through speculative narratives. She works through tactile, intuitive analogue processes in dialogue with the digital tools of her architectural background. She is also committed to widening access to art and the spaces that govern it, mentoring with Arts Emergency and co-founding Jack Draw Me Like, a community life-drawing club in Hackney. Alongside her own practice, she has taught at The Bartlett School of Architecture and been a guest critic at Oxford Brookes School of Architecture. She currently works at Do Ho Suh Studio as Architecture and Research Lead.

Plaster, thread

Casting a Space explored the possibilities of space-making through the process of pattern-making; a back and forth dialogue between the analogue and the digital and back again as the liquid plaster is poured into fabric formwork to create a solid state.
