Making New Nature. The Strandbeest by Theo Jansen.



Since about ten years Theo Jansen is making new nature: Skeletons, manufactured from simple plastic tubes, which walk by the wind. Theo Jansen's laboratory is located in Ypenburg, the Netherland, next to a new housing development area (known for the housing complex of MVRDV).

What a contrast to the VINEX housing.
