public space no. 11, Zuiderbad - the oldest swimming pool
>three years ago
i bought a mysterious object at the
freemarket on queensday, for 25 cents. just roaming
through all the rubbish, my eye fellon a short
wooden stick, encased in a metal box which has a
square openingat the top (or is it the bottom?).
it looked lonely there, so i took it home. there
it has been these last years. i often wonder what
its function was and i have made a habbit of asking
visitors what they think it might be. answers vary
enormously. a piece in a medieval british game for
instance,the rear end of a stamp, or a utensil for
angry housewives and many more. by now i am not so
much interested anymore in what it might be, but
in the fantasies of my friends.
