Deep Encounter is a floating pavilion built for the biennale "sonsbeek20→24: force times distance ⏤ on labour and its sonic ecologies". It serves as a social gathering space and seeks to give equal consideration to both humans and nature in the park. The floating pavilion exists in nature but outside of its rules. Aside from the fact that it floats, the pavilion takes on a very artificial character. The round polygon shape of the Pavilion, a crystal-like constellation of triangles, is meant to emphasise its man-made qualities—floating starkly just off the shore of Grote Vijver, the park's biggest pond.
