“Panta rhei – everything flows”, said the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, alluding to the eternal change of existence. “Nothing in life stands still; it always carries on”.

This philosophy formed the basis for the Cubus concept by Swiss artist Isa Habegger, which she created as part of the 800th-anniversary celebrations for the municipality of Wollerau . Her kinetic CUBUS won over the jury and captivates with its movement and durability. The stainless-steel art object rotates smoothly in the wind and captivates with the exceptional clarity of its form. The commissioned artwork serves as an authentic cultural ambassador for the municipality, helping to shape its identity.

Kinetic art in urban and rural settings

The beauty of this kinetic artwork and its universal, global potential are showcased in these unique visualisations. The Cube trots through urban and rural landscapes, showcasing interaction and artistic intervention with nature, society and architecture, always paired with contemporary, regional dynamics. The Cubetrotter as a source of inspiration for the dynamic application of kinetic art.

Whether it be Grindelwald’s majestic natural landscape, Kyoto’s contemplative Zen gardens, Miami’s colourful Art Deco District, Basel’s historic market square or Vienna’s imperial Hofburg, the kinetic cube always exerts its great appeal and radiates its magical charm.

Panta rhei – everything flows.
