This is the meeting point for the two clients. Merkel descends to the meeting point and meets at the stairs, thus having to look down upon Keller as she glides to the meeting point from the ocean. This represents their power levels, as Merkel is seen to have more power than Keller, as she is a diplomat whilst Keller was an intellectual. The dining table effectively seperates the two form eachother, further emphasising their power split. The placement of the meeting spot underneath and close to a waterfall and also surrounded by high peaks is another allusion to the powerplay at hand, for both natural features are also embodiments of the power of nature.
This is Helen Kellers side of the bridge with the elevator in it. It is positioned below that of Merkel's, another allusion to their powers. Kellers is embedded into the Ocean with a large opening, thus allowing her to feel the sensation of the sea as she cannot see nor hear it. The openings and the glass encasement allow her to also feel the heat of the sun.
From this point of view, it is possible to see the two ends of the bridge. Merkels bridge on the left has been built to appear over-structured and stable, thus representing her political power and position in European Politics. Its encasement in transparent glass is also an allusion to how the power structures are often hidden - as normal people we are not particularly enlightened to the ways in which the government figures control the country. Furthermore, the purple end of Keller's section can be seen to be suported by the cables coming from Merkel's end of the bridge, another allusion to the powerless-ness of Keller in relation to Merkel - Merkel's end of the bridge has to physically support itself and also the Keller end.
