In general people think of walls as a piece of upright construction that divides one space into two or more spaces. This “wall” surface is continuous except when pierced by doors, windows, etc. However, is the purpose of a wall solely to separate and divide or is its function greater and more varied. This prompted me to look at the physical makeup of "walls" and their role in shaping interior spaces. However several dichotomies emerged that force me to pause and revaluate what i know as a "wall."
Plane or Volume?
Negative vs Positive space?
One room or Two rooms?
The walls content? or The contents on the wall?
Can a wall be Art?
The following posts are a serious of classifactions I discovered in my analysis of walls

wall as content versus content on the wall is a fruitful observation. so too the catalg of walls, dematerialized but descrbing boundaries of space. hold on to this.
