KAARZ FOUNTAIN / WHIRLPOOL
Park of the castle of Kaarz, Mecklenburg 2018
Within the festival "Das grüne Zitat - In Farbe"
200 m garden hose, iron wire, mounted on wire frame mesures: 170 cm x 150 cm
A whirlpool rising from the fountain.
A tornado?
A rebellion of garden hoses?
A turning movement.
The installation is following the round shape of the fountain in the park. In a humorous way the waterspout fountain is showing a whirl that is inspired by computer generated models of tornados. It can be interpreted as a form of pure dynamic energy that is pulling all of the surrounding streams into its power field and hurling it back into the space.
