Night Walks
through Distribution Landscapes
Satellite Projekt with San Keller
Limited Edition
The edition is a 150 x 185 cm two-colour knitted blanket made of 100% merino wool. The edition is limited to 30 exclusive copies. On the blanket, the logos of some of the companies encountered in six night walks in 2020 and 2021 can be seen fragmentarily in bright blue on a dark background. On the left and right edges of the ceiling, the start and finish locations of the six night hikes and their dates are noted.
San Keller altered the company logos and obtained a vocabulary of shapes that he distributed on the ceiling to form an abstract composition. The blanket is a memento of the six night hikes and allows the six distribution landscapes to appear in the viewer's imagination.
On the occasion of the release of the edition "Night Walks through Distribution Landscapes" at the Galerie Lullin + Ferrari in Zurich, there will be an extra walk around Zurich Airport. In recent years, a number of companies specialising in colocation services have settled in the area around the airport.
"Using our colocation services, you can rent dedicated rack space, which is located in a data centre with the highest level of reliability and connectivity. Our server rooms offer multi-layered redundant security systems to ensure server housing in compliance with current global standards such as FINMA compliance."
We walk through a distribution landscape of the digital. As secure as the data is stored, San Keller also makes the trek in all weathers, carrying a carton of cigarettes.
