Terra Cognita - Urban Jungle

Sabine Haubitz & Stefanie Zoche

Tropical Island (2004)

In 2004 the Halle CargoLifter near Brandenburg was converted into an artificial tropical paradise with a rain forest, swimming pools and a heated beach. Sabine Haubitz and Stefanie Zoche recorded the transformation, so that one could see what elements are necessary to suggest a tropical setting. It's an illusion that demands a vast expenditure of energy.

  • Großer Pool (big pool)


  • Palmeninsel I (palm island I)
