Superkilen is an award-winning urban space. The public park, created by the innovative artists’ group Superflex, is “intended to celebrate diversity. Filled with objects from around the globe, it is designed as a kind of world exposition for the local inhabitants, covering over 50 nationalities, who have been able to contribute their own ideas and artefacts to the project.” |
It’s a sort of architectural United Nations, yet very Danish in its democratic approach, with swings from Iraq, benches from Brazil, a fountain from Morocco and signage from Russia.
On paper the combination sounds forced and muddled but in person it comes off like a block party of colour and form. Area residents young and old seem to embrace Superkilen and use every one of its colourful corners to skate, swing, slide… |
