As an artist-duo Vionnet & Sibum challenges their individual artistic areas, in order to jointly explore new ways and create works that play with our expectations of both form and content. With THE WAILERS they have, with a simple and invisible touch, in interaction with the surrounding nature, created a site-specifc work, of water. Surprisingly, and seemingly at random, the work breaks the sea level.

An imitation of a real whale fountain. The fluid sculpture form maintains the work’s ex- istence in the mind of the viewer and will surprise again and again.
