Testudo
   [2009]
36 tables, fixation system
5 x 4 x 3 m

To create this volume, 36 tables are assembled in a defensive stance, legs pointing out. Showing their undersides, the tabletops create an inner space. The defensive schema evokes the Roman military formation called testudo in Latin, meaning “tortoise”.
