About This Project
Description
“Flow State” is a site-specific installation made from adhesive films and vinyls, created on the iconic Water Floor of Berlin’s Watergate Club. With vibrant colors, fluid shapes, and dynamic layering, the work captures the energy and rhythm of a dancefloor that has pulsed at the core of Berlin’s electronic music scene for decades.
Drawing from the club’s location on the river Spree and the architectural flow of the Water Floor, the installation merges organic movement with bold, graphic design – a visual interpretation of sound waves, body motion, and collective experience. The forms drift, collide, and expand across the space like liquid light, echoing the continuous pulse of the music.
The project was conceived as a homage to the Watergate, created in light of the club’s upcoming closure – an artistic gesture to honor its cultural legacy and lasting impact on nightlife worldwide.
This is not a nostalgic farewell, but a living homage – a translation of nightlife into physical form. Adhesive films and vinyls, with their precision, immediacy, and impermanence, serve as the perfect medium to express the fleeting intensity of the club experience. The artwork doesn’t imitate the club – it responds to it, amplifies it, and reflects it back in color and shape.
