A prism is a lapidary shape that underlines the verticality of the space. It levitates in the space, it does not touch the tower. We could say that it hides a secret within itself. It is a tribute to the tower, a tangible reality which at the same time belies its weight and size. The viewer is the measure of its scale.
I also was looking for the best solution to the given spatial situation in terms of feasibility. We see beautiful dark glass, dyed right through. The viewer experiences the space through the prism of this unexpected oddity, grasping reality via the reflected image of both the surrounding environment and their self.
It’s about taking in the feeling of a given location and putting something of yourself in it so that it doesn’t harm the place, but makes it special, nudging it into another reality or occasion.
