For the NIKE WHQ Campus Expansion Art Project, Mirko Reisser has created a work that depicts his typical topics and style elements: The game with the construction and the deconstruction of the letters, their figuration and their abstraction or the movement between two- and three dimensionality are woven together with attributes that are characteristic for NIKE and it’s image. The work in its execution displays movement, the beholder is driven by its energy and dynamics. The work is about changing and evolving while being true to oneself.
