A shared move of a one‐ton sculpture powered by instinctive
group action.
IM BAU is a blend of installation, performance and participatory action, designed for public spaces. In the spirit of a construction site, the project functions as a process-oriented exhibition of the (re)assembly of a sculpture made of wooden beams and iron kettlebells. The work relies on active involvement of the public, as the aim is to create a shared experience of moving the sculpture from one location to another.
