Collaboration with Philipp Ricklefs, 2012
Installation at Hamburg America Center
10ft ISO Container, steel, industrial coating
870 x 930 x 180 cm


A 10-foot ISO container is disassembled and cut into fragments against its own rectangular geometry obeying the golden ratio. The parts are mounted in the lobby of the Hamburg-America-Center in Hamburg’s Hafencity as a massive and monumental relief. Each face of the originally cubic container is painted in a different color referencing the identities of different global shipping companies.
