Charles Simonds' 1978 Dwelling installation in Berlin documented on artcritical

Charles Simonds created a site-specific installation titled "Dwelling: Berlin, Kreuzeberg" in 1978 using clay, sand, and wood. The work was documented on the artcritical website, with an entry posted on December 31, 2015. This documentation preserves the ephemeral nature of Simonds' architectural interventions, which often involve miniature clay dwellings placed in urban environments. The artist's practice explores themes of habitation, community, and the relationship between built structures and natural materials. The 2015 post on artcritical serves as an archival record of this specific Berlin installation from the late 1970s.
