Supported by architects Kurt Huber and René Antoniol, this six-week residency allowed Göttin to engage in a profound architectural dialogue with the industrial space. Using nothing but adhesive tape, he transformed the heavy, functional hangar into a site of shifting perspectives and visual weightlessness.
Artistic Vision & Technique
The installation operates on two distinct but mathematically linked levels:
-
The Perimeter: Black textile adhesive tape (2.5 cm wide) was applied horizontally to the outer walls. These lines serve as "visual cuts," breaking the solidity of the wall and transforming the architecture into an ornamental relief.
-
The Volume: Transparent adhesive tape (5 cm wide) was stretched between the interior structural pillars. The spacing between these transparent bands was calculated to mirror the width of the black wall tapes.
By omitting tape where existing architectural features (like windows or relief bricks) occurred, Göttin intentionally "broke the rules" of his own system, creating a playful yet rigorous intervention. As viewers move through the space, the overlapping lines of the black and transparent tapes create a shimmering, Moire-like effect, dissolving the mass of the building into a series of rhythmic frequencies.
Context & Significance
As noted in the catalog text by Beatrix Ruf, this work targets architecture at its most fundamental level: measure, number, and proportion. Göttin’s intervention is not merely decorative; it is a "perceptual event." By repeating the constitutive elements of architecture (wall, volume, enclosure) through the humble medium of tape, he shifts the space from the realm of the everyday into a state of absolute self-purpose. It is a cheeky yet profound game that challenges the viewer to recognize the character of a room in an entirely new light—shifting the mass of the industrial "Shed" into a transparent, weightless volume.

相關引言
「Daniel 的藝術具有清晰與深思。但這種清晰並非來自固定或重複的立場或策略。相反地，他的藝術是反覆進行的，回應不斷變化的條件與環境。他的作品不同面向，無論是牆面作品或為牆面製作的物件，彼此相互關聯並互相反思。Daniel 所稱的整體——他的作品體系，具有一種完整性。」（Chris Ashley，Minus Space）
