Amsterdam (NL)
Laser cut corten steel, stainless steel, concrete
Commissioned by Amsterdam City Council
Under this brand new – and prizewinning -park and urban development in the center of Amsterdam, lies part of the ancient city-wall. Inspired by this historic presence, five oversized shards are placed in sequence in the park. These fragments refer to the idea of a history that consists of pieces of data, such as the shards of pots and dishes that one finds in digging in the clay soil of Amsterdam. The outside skin was designed in collaboration with Niessen& de Vries
The commission was created and coordinated by Marco Cops of Wiseguys and Paula van Zijl.
