Coda

2019

steel, paint, tubing, water

The scientific conference Acqua Roma, held in October 2019, is complemented with a water treatment system (washing machine and biological filter) – designed and constructed by the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) – that provides insight into the process of turning grey water into quality-controlled water. The system is completed by the fountain-like sculpture Coda (a fountain for a filter) by Kilian Rüthemann for the project by Mira Bleuler and Tumasch Clalüna. It guides the clarified water through a simple structure known from brutalist architecture to find its own path to the drainage. The Installation questions the function as well as the staging of water in the city of Rome.
