We Walked the Earth by Uffe Isolotto

The gates and other elements were incorporated in the existing structure of the Danish pavilion at Giardini in Venice and formed the scenography of We Walked the Earth by artist Uffe Isolotto, combining objects, sculptures and other artworks with a quality of an immersive video game.

Series of gates, sliding doors, hanging structures, furniture, hooks, hinges and chains that are inspired by traditional European style farmhouse architecture. All the structural elements are made by using standard aluminium box sections with sections cut away revealing the hollow structure. It is a technical replica of a rustic alternate timeline.
