What does the faceted shape communicate?
Contemporary art is not just about looking; it's about thinking and imagining. It's important to use your own mind to speculate. So, first, consider what this tower is conveying to you.
There was once a white tower here, built with donations from great figures. Over time, however, it lost attention and its presence faded. Liam Gillick, an artist interested in human diversity, noticed this issue.
He created a vibrant, faceted tower as a symbol of the town's diversity, wrapping it around the original white tower.
Be sure to explore the underground as well. The upper part of the old white tower houses an apparatus reminiscent of the origins of solar power, which uses solar energy to nurture the plants below.
Liam resonated with this sustainable structure, and it remains a testament to such forward-thinking concepts.
