Oberbaumbrücke

An unannounced, self-initiated 3D mapping on the twin towers and arches of the Oberbaumbrücke, Berlin’s most iconic bridge.

The Oberbaumbrücke, the double-deck bridge with two brick towers that links Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain across the Spree, is one of Berlin’s most photographed landmarks. RE:SORB mapped it unannounced — a ‘secret mapping on a bridge’ for the people who happened to be there.

The show plays with the bridge’s neo-Gothic brickwork: dissolving the towers into light, rebuilding them in colour and letting the whole structure appear to move over the river, mirrored in the water below.
