Art Crystal City Mind Reflects A Changing Europe

The giant black monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey taught us to be weary of mysterious structures that look out of place. But even though it was made by the Germans, there’s no reason to fear this curious Crystal City Mind creation that will be popping up all over Europe.

The 3D design project, curated by Coordination and Diephotodesigner.de, was originally placed all around the streets of Berlin as a way to “reflect” the chaotic changes that the city has gone through over the last 20 years. The jagged construction of polished steel and black matte surfaces will be making a special appearance at London’s design week, where it will be on display from September 18 to 21 at the Dray Walk Gallery, after which it is expected to tour the rest of Europe. Check out its reflections of Berlin below.
