Integrated art project for an in-between playground area.
Integrated art project for an in-between playground area.
How to make a living playground? What do children want?
To my opinion, the original plan was a stiff designed playground; – to propose a not-integrated art project here would not make this impression any better!
Therefore I chose the main object in the site, – the amphi, to become a site specific sculpture. I transformed the ordinary amphi into a sculpted landscape, a “bird cliff” for children, with several new private places to sit in, to hide in and to play with. Forms and places to be filled with there own stories.

Then I asked myself; what can be re-used from the original plan, integrated in my plan?
The result is an integrated art project crossing borders between landscape architecture, landart and sculpture. And to bring a project like this to fruition, presuppose good communication and collaboration between purchaser, architects, engineers, constructors and myself.
