A permanent installation projects moving images on to the platforms of an underground railway station, thus making the waiting period more enjoyable for passengers.

Tania Ruiz
Developer:
Trafikverket, Statens konstråd, Informationsteknik Malmo

This work was commissioned and constructed concurrently with the Malmö City Tunnel that hosts it and expressly designed for its functions. It has given a new dimension to the railway platform space by barring all advertising and replacing it on both sides for a length of 180 metres with an installation of slow­moving images that give poetic sense to the fact of waiting.

Project begining: 2004
Start of work: 2006
Total cost: 950,000 €
Surface: 4,500
