Year: 2015

Status: Competition

Open competition for an installation celebrating William Butler Yeats 150 years anniversary

What to protect? That which is still untouched and that which we long for
What to give? A specific place with a universal resonance

A highly polished stainless steel surface onto which a sculptural, yet functional steel chair is welded. Mounted on pontoons dimensioned to support the platform right above the water level.

In due time the steel floor will be transported to its final position at the university campus where the chair will continue to support lingering dreams.
