Kärcher HD 1050 B Chungju Dam Fact File Matsudagawa Dam,
Japan The second collaboration between Kärcher and Klaus Dauven saw the creation of the “Hanazakari” (The Five Flowers) artwork on the Matsudagawa Dam, close to the city of Ashikaga in Japan in the summer of 2008.
For this piece, flower motifs were etched out of a 12-year-old layer of dirt on the dam wall, which measures 228 metres in length and 56 metres in height, using the water stream from four Kärcher HD 1050 B cold water high-pressure cleaners. The five flowers can again be seen in the contrast between the treated and untreated surface.
With climbing ropes, a mobile platform and the assistance of the German rope access technology firm GSAR, every part of the wall could be accessed and the dirt, made up almost exclusively of organic matter, could be removed.
