watchtower
2005

Over a period of six weeks, the circumferential windows of the watch below and the eight firing slits on the mezzanine floor were opened day and night. The light was kept on at night, and made the tower visible from a distance.
The presence and function of the tower, the observed (outside), and the observer (inside) shifted. Because of this intervention, the spatial impression of the rooms themselves significantly changed.
