‘Ontem, areias movediças’ (Yesterday, Quicksands), by Renata Lucas for documenta 2012.
An invisible pyramid structure spread across Kassel, with fragments of the corners in four basements of the C&A store, a parking garage, the Fridericianum and the Gebrüder-Grimm-House. Accompanied by videos in different locations along the lines showing Kassel as a dessert-city.
