Birte Bosse – Ludfrid invited to peace 2020
Lutfridstrasse 20, 53121 Bonn
art and living #14
Project description for the wall design in the stairwell of Lutfridstraße 20 by the artist Birte Bosse:
"My basic idea for the design of the MIWO staircases comes from the intention to contribute to social exchange and to humorously address the different moods of the residents. Based on my murals in the cafeteria in the ELKI of the University Hospital Bonn, the lines and color accents should move between concrete representation and abstraction in order to have an associative effect on the one hand and not to be overwhelming on the other.”
