Constructed from redundant Christian church pews it consciously draws on the visual language of Islamic architecture to create a new kind of contemplative space, one that looks for ‘common cultural and spiritual ground’ in our diverse society.
The installation seeks to negotiate cultural difference as a tangible symbol of religious diversity and respect. The space will offer opportunities to reflect and experience calm, a focus for discussion and for events that lead to greater understanding and tolerance of each other, as well as a place where diverse communities will meet.
Best known for his site-specific installations in public spaces that create new, temporary buildings, Wolfgang Weileder explores how we engage with civic space and architecture, and how we negotiate it as a social space.
