Art to look at, touch and walk on<\/h2>\n\n

For the EMSCHERKUNST 2013, the Berlin artist Reiner Maria Matysik<\/strong><\/em> created the artwork “River becomes cloud” at the mouth of the Emscher into the Rhine. The artwork consists of a cloud machine and a building made of spheres. The highlight of the artwork is that the soap bubble-like structure is used as a walk-in art installation.<\/p>\n\n

Here, where today the Emscher still plunges several meters into the Rhine, the artist now uses a cloud machine to make the Emscher rise into the air. Visitors can learn all about these airy structures in a residential architecture that looks like a cloud with its spheres – and stay here overnight. In his cloud architecture, the artist has created an overnight accommodation for two people in an airy loft bed.<\/p>\n\n

The following demands were placed on the artwork and fulfilled by ACCENTFORM.<\/p>\n\n

The spherical enclosures were planned with a diameter of 4.0 m and 2.50 m. With these ball sizes, it was possible to achieve cost-effective production, as ACCENTFORM has production molds for these ball dimensions. Each sphere bubble was created as a separate structure, with dividing lines only at the joints between the spheres. Three large structures were created from the 4m spheres.<\/p>\n\n

The seamless creation of the individual spheres was advantageous, as no images of segment divisions were visible on the surface.<\/p>\n\n

A disadvantage was the large individual part dimensions of up to 4 meters. This meant that the pre-assembled ball house had to be transported to the mouth of the Emscher into the Rhine using a special transporter. Both the building inspectorate and the structural analysis of the construction required the spheres to withstand a defined load. Superimposed loads are defined as loads from rain, snow, wind or people. ACENTFORM carried out a self-test by having several employees stand on the structure, which demonstrated a load of 800 kg.<\/p>\n\n

The performance of the GRP material is particularly evident in the ratio of the sphere size of 4 meters to the wall thickness of just 5 mm.<\/p>\n\n

From the outside, the spheres have been painted with a water-based facade paint. Inside, the ball house was sealed with a topcoat application. This technique ensures a reproducible smooth surface for all subsequent formwork oil treatments.<\/p>\n\n
