Paper Paradise

Artist and filmmaker Guido van der Werve wondered what it would be like if were to build a present-day Tower of Babel, involving people with as many different backgrounds and voices as possible. Together with TAAK and several architects, artists, and city makers, we developed this idea into an architectural installation on the NDSM wharf. The different building elements are translated into visual outcomes that will acquire a place in the Tower between September 18 and October 17. In this way, the Tower of Babel will eventually become a metaphor for what the ideal polyphonic city could look like.
