THE WASHED UP CITY
The washed up city is part of 'the archive of the
inbetween'. This ungoing project contains a collection
of works that deal with transition, migration and
repurposing. It is a "work in process" based on
research into the history of places and people that
are in motion. The NDSM shipyard in Amsterdam
North is one of the places included in the archive.
The washed up city consists of a series of architect
-ural forms made from washed plastic crates, found
between the basalt blocks next to the ferry at the
shipyard.
