StevenshofjesDIJK

A green dike, formed by 15 covered cars of local residents, appeared at the edge of the district Stevenshof in the city of Leiden.
Stevenshof is a car dense district. It is built in a former polder landscape and is still facing the polder at one side.
The work refers to the history of the district but also links to the new plans for a highway in the polder next to Stevenshof.

The temporary dike appeared on September 25th, 2011 during the Kunstroute in Leiden.
