I am a Berlin based artist, illustrator and storyteller. On my recent visit to Zürich I decided to let some of the towers write their own history and tell their stories by turning them upside down and visualizing them as writing instruments.

I had fun doing these hope you have fun browsing through them too.

These towers are guardians of Zurich. The illustrator has given them an opportunity to express themselves. Each one of them have their own stories to tell. Many untold stories they would have witnessed. Their reflections as writing instruments motivates me to continue the story Allen has started. I have never been to Zurich but I want to hear them speak. Many of you would have interacted with them. Make them heard. Share your moments when these silent witnesses would have communicated with you.
