New Ark is a cutting-edge urban space and artwork that addresses the pressing issue of sea level rise through an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach with architecture practice Rumgehør and artist Stine Rosdahl-Petersen.
New Ark is a cutting-edge urban space and artwork that addresses the pressing issue of sea level rise through an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach with architecture practice Rumgehør and artist Stine Rosdahl-Petersen. The design was developed using advanced wave simulations and realized in partnership with industry leaders such as Odico Robotics and the Aarhus School of Architecture. The result is an impressive undulating surface composed of 100 unique tiles, that invites visitors to explore the alluring and intricate patterns of wave dynamics or seek rescue on one of the large lifebuoys. We hope that New Ark will become a must-see destination for all those interested in the intersection of art, design, and the environment.
As one of the world's largest surfaces of its kind, New Ark represents a new and exciting way to raise awareness and inspire action on important environmental issues such as sea level rise. It's not only an urban space but also an artwork that invites visitors to experience the beauty and complexity of water while also raising awareness of the dangers of sea level rise. New Ark is an ambitious project that demonstrates how urban spaces can be designed to address pressing environmental issues, which we hope will make it a must-see destination for all those interested in the intersection of art, design, and the environment.
