Project Description

This wood workshop, conducted as part of the wood exhibition at Virserums Konsthall, Sweden was a design and build exercise over four days.  The Intervention was a 9m bridge spanning across a river. The wooden bridge was made entirely using glu-lam wood sections (45mm x 180mm) and simple joinery. No nails, screws, or glue were used in the process.

Collaborators: Ali Reza Dossal, Anahit, Panos, Jayson Young, Faya Tjgay, Arno de Ryst, Karin Olson, Tobias Westerlund, Veronica Gerini, Walter Unterrainer
