Obsessions make work better?
On September 13, 2008 artist Sagmeister began the installation of 250,000 Eurocents on Waagdragerhof Square in Amsterdam. Over the course of 8 days and with the help of more than 100 volunteers, the coins were sorted into 4 different shades, and carefully placed over this 300 sqm area, according to a master plan.
The quote that from an eyebird-view was visible was: “Obsessions make my life worse and my work better”. Considering the patience and the paroxysm that lead the artist to design such an installation, it might be true and in some fashion for each of us sometimes. Don’t you agree?
At least from his foolishness a beautiful artwork came out. The result is here below:
