Yellow Under Pressure
cube #15 - Anni Mertens
Yellow Under Pressure transforms the cube into a surreal desert-scape. Inspired by Rotondes’ shifting environment, this site-specific sculpture installation reflects a space caught between construction and constraint.
Scaffolding palm trees compressed against the cube’s limits, and ceramic pillars emerging from sand-covered ground suggest a landscape defined by resilience under pressure. The distorted forms and vibrant yellows seem both familiar and uncanny, blending glossy colours with industrial neon reflections to create a disorienting interplay of texture, colour, and light.
From outside the cube, viewers get a glimpse of a dreamlike scene where surfaces deceive, textures shift, and materials challenge perception. One might wonder: How do we squeeze ourselves into the spaces we inhabit, always adapting and shifting, yet never quite fitting?
