Tendence autumn+winter, Frankfurt Fair, July 4- 8, 2008

968 Adhesive Tape Rolls
Two 70° wooden pallets with Sound-Cushions
4 Miniscan + 8 S4 Profiler

You see it as soon as you walk into the Frankfurt Tendence fair: a shiny cloud floating in the distance. Only as you get closer can you make out that the whole structure is made of a thousand adhesive tape rolls embedded on a grid and spun out over hundreds of nodes. Although adhesive tape is an everyday object, here, through simple multiplication and extension, it takes on a whole new life. The cloud of tape changes constantly as light plays with shadows and reflection yielding a different glimpse into the internal structure with every new angle. Lying on cushions and gazing up at the installation you are surrounded by scintillating sounds, melancholic and relaxing, evoking clouds drifting over summer meadows or rain drops splattering on window panes.
