Implanting

架构师提供的文本描述。桥是一个临时的特定地点的设施，是游乐场卡纳尔城市节的一部分。这个节日的重点是布鲁塞尔的运河区，并试图通过一系列活动将这条边界线从社会和空间上转变为一个有约束力的因素。该组织最初邀请Gijs Van Vaerenbergh为位于北火车站轴线和旅游景点的B柱大楼的艺术节演讲场所设计场景。

Text description provided by the architects. Bridge was a temporary site-specific installation, being part of the Playground Kanal city festival. This festival focuses on the canal zone in Brussels and tries through a series of activities to transform this border line, both socially and spatially, into a binding element. The organisation initially invited Gijs Van Vaerenbergh for the design of a scenography for the festival talking place at the B-post building, situated on the axis of the North railway station and the site of Tour & Taxis. However, they proposed the construction a temporary pedestrian bridge, physically embodying the ambitions of the festival, namely creating a connection between both sides of the canal. This intervention took place on the exact same location where for many years procedures have been running to construct a permanent bridge, but without results because of the complexity of the administrative and political context.
