The installation/performance Amusement consists of an all inclusive beach environment with thirty sun chairs and a number of inflatable objects floating in the water of the pond in front of City Hall. The water jets will alternate their pressure, moving the objects, and creating the sensation of being in an amusement centre; the visitors will use the sun chairs in and around the pool to 'relax and enjoy art'. With daily performances, the artists will invite the public to take a break, lay down, use the sun chairs and offer drinks for refreshment.
