The project uncovers the unexplored potential within a historical water reservoir in Tinghøj; built as a functional piece of infrastructure to collect and distribute water so essential for life. However, the subterranean space was never intended for the public to explore. Through our intervention, the space is transformed into a sensory and atmospheric experience of water, material and light.
