Coppélia is a mechanical shell structure situated on the dockside next to Gothenburg’s Opera House. To celebrate the art of dancing and as a gesture of respect to the ever changing context of the site, Coppélia is a flexible structure suited for spontaneous meetings and interaction. With a simple push you can bring her to life. Coppélia was born out of my desire to pursue a creative impulse from start to finish with focus on three themes - motion, transformation and optimization.
