    Dogshark

    Kleindokkaai , 9000 Gent Cee Pil

    Dogshark is a cross between a land-living animal and a fish.
    It is a reference to Ghent’s old harbour. Dogshark symbolises the land on the one hand and the water in the docks on the other hand.
    The building’s users clean Ghent’s watercourses and thus form a connection between land and water.

    Kitsune

    Gebroeders de Smetstraat 1 , 9000 Gent Kitsune

    Who is the king of the birds?
    In English folklore, we find a story about the old world in which the birds one day decided that the one who could fly highest for the longest time would be crowned as king of all birds.
    Ducks, blackbirds and smaller birds soon gave up while the eagle soared high into the sky without difficulty. Just when he was about to stop, a little sparrow flew up from between the eagle’s wings.
    This way, the humble sparrow was able to beat the mightiest and strongest bird.
