About the schoolyard living room
|
In celebration of its 90th birthday, Norbertus college Roosendaal commissioned Frederike Top and Jana Flohr to design an interactive art installation to be placed in the school yard.
The designers developed a 'living room' for the schoolyard, doubling as a public art space, showcasing student art work. The shape of the furniture in this 'living room' is derived from sketch-like pen drawings, pulled into a 3-dimensional world, and eventually shaped of steel tubes like a climbing frame. |
Each piece of furniture has one or several metal rings that can hold flowerpot-sized pieces. It's the students' job to fill the rings and/or flowerpots with artwork.
By adding their own pieces of art to the furniture-frames, the Schoolyard living room gets a fresh look every other term. The Schoolyard living room was festively opened in September 2009 by two of the schools' students. |
