Temporary installation, Tønsberg 2003. Thirty oil barrels composed like canned food in a shop rack. The barrels were filled with water and
pierced to create beams of water for a fountain. In order to create the perfect arch the water filled barrels where shot by a gun. Imaging referred to classical western movies, always with stereotype scenes from saloon fights with water barrels being pierced from gunshots. The other reference is classical landscape design of the water arches of the garden of Alhambra. The connection of high/ low culture integrated with the oil barrels imply hints to new rich Norway.
