Sleeping Dog

Intarsia in asphalt, building lot.

Shown at the Exhibition Ortsumgehung,
Kunst - und Kulturverein Alte Schule Baruth 2015.

Work in public space.
2015

A new street without a name was constructed in Baruth as a bypass, a temporary solution for a big road work project some years ago. But instead of removing the street, the city decided to keep the provisional solution. During the exhibition the „sleeping dog“ was seen as a hole in the street, a sculptured negative shape. After the exhibition the hole was filled with asphalt. Nothing was left to be seen, only a spot in the street to remind us of the sleeping dog under the tarmac.
