"Levitation" suspends a black polyhedron in Kunstraum Dornbirn's gallery space. The geometric form hangs from ceiling-mounted cables, appearing to float despite its mass. The black powder coating absorbs light, emphasizing the form's silhouette and edges. The suspension system positions the polyhedron at calculated height and orientation-viewers experience it from below, above (from gallery's upper level), and at eye level. The work tests perceptual boundaries: heavy material appearing weightless, static form suggesting potential movement. Frank's concept explores gravity's visual absence; Reiner's engineering ensures stable suspension despite the polyhedron's scale and weight.
