Pin_Ball consists of a roughly soccer ball-sized galvanized metal sphere with 50 radial tube sleeves welded to it. The metal range poles\u00a0 that are attached to the ball create a freestanding a spherical form that is about four-meters in diameter and freely movable.<\/p>\n
Range poles are commonly used in surveying and geodesy. They signal the points or distances to be measured. Because they are painted in two colors, the rods are clearly visible from a distance. Here, the sphere formed out of these rods looks almost like an explosion emanating in all directions from the silvery center.<\/p>\n
The artist created the sphere in 2004 as a contribution to the temporary exhibition project PRIVATGR\u00dcN at the Kunstraum Fuhrwerkswaage in Cologne. There, the object was installed above the middle of a fence bordering the private garden, so that it visibly connected the property with the adjacent undeveloped pastureland. As such, it was positioned as an interpretation and assumption that the pasture surrounding the garden would be parceled into smaller units using range rods in the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n
The object was destroyed in a studio fire in 2009. A reconstruction of the sculpture was created for the area outside of the Sparkasse building on the invitation of the Kulturstiftung Sparkasse Unna and the Sparkasse Unna. The work has been part of Sparkasse Unna art collection since 2010.<\/p>\n
