CONTAINOSAURUS
Lowlands Biddinghuizen Netherlands
August 2009

big-scale installation with use of disapproved windmill wings and containers

We found a place in Holland where not usable windmill wings (for their intended function) were stored and felt that we needed to reuse them. Our idea to create an almost-flying dinosaur-installation in combination with containers hit the Lowlands music festival people on the right place as they are going more industrial.

Here are first sketches, renderings and photos of our model.

Everybody involved is putting all his energies to make this seemingly unreal installation possible...eg the constructor who faces 160 tons wind forces and no anchors in the ground...

The containosaurus will be realized in august!

project by Jan Körbes and Denis Oudendijk

with intensive help of Job Saltzher, Rob/Laskracht and G.Henckens from constructions advisors Aronsohn
