Nest in BankART

A structure resembling a bird’s nest will be installed indoors and outdoors.
Birds (people) inhabit these structures temporarily, then head out (fly away) to other places. These nests will be built in discreet areas of the city. They will be built and then disappear in all sorts of places. We anticipate that these discreet actions in conjunction with the city’s metabolism (gentrification) will bring new interest and discoveries to the city (Yokohama).
