Über das Werk: 1. Breaking and inter-penetrating hard edges between the city and the river. The high walls seem to be too harsh and austere for a place for casual swim and play. Dolmen like structures will provide shades, leading pedestrians, gradually to the river. 2. Large Human Leisure Figures wishes to encourage real people to join in for a swim...The gentle stairs will extend the hard edges of the city into the river.
