Bas Maters Come on the table (1990)

The Berkelplein, on which this artwork is displayed, was created by landscape architect Oosterhoff in collaboration with artist Bas Maters. The image is called Bowl on the table and forms a marking in the paving of the square, which is characterized by a circular shape with concrete walls and suspended benches. With this large abstract spatial work, Maters wanted to create a personal environment by placing a meter-high bowl on an equally high table, under which residents can shelter, as if it were an arbor. This image was created in the context of the city embellishment fund and was a collaboration between CBK Rotterdam and the residents' association Kralingen-West.
