The brightly colored, tilted-legged “tents” by Rotganzen are the steel remnants of a Party. Or so it seems. What might have the appearance of being off-kilter is actually a stylized steel structure, portraying a modern, intriguing twist on a form most readily recognizable to all. This collection of tents, aptly named Party, is designed to reflect a personal interpretation by Rotganzen inspired by the concept of traditional Dutch backyard parties. Party signifies a sense of color and life, juxtaposed with emptiness and superficiality.

Rotganzen is a Rotterdam based artist collective formed by Robin Stam, Joeri Horstink and Mark van Wijk. More information available through Rotganzen.
