art-in-architecture competition HUMBOLDT FORUM in THE BERLIN PALACE

Wish forest

Five lime trees serve as 'wish trees'. Wishes have been written onto 1443 strips of Chinese porcelain, and fastened to stainless steel cables in the crowns of the trees. The lime tree: the symbol of justice, love, peace,  Heimat, a place of coming together. It is an expression of shared powers, and such, a gesture against violence and exclusion.

Stephanie Rhode and Wil van Blokland designed the art project WUNSCHWALD, in the staircase hall of the Humboldt Forum im Berliner Schloss, Berlin
