Panopticum Berlin is a collection of drawings that include panoramas and stereoscopic images. Panopticum Berlin is being created by Dutch artists Wim Hardeman and Onno Schilstra, who have been developing this project since 2007.

The drawings are executed in pen and black ink on white paper, or in white crayon and ink on black paper. They measure 13.5 cm, 23 cm or 30 cm in height, and their widths vary in from 13.5 cm to 240 cm. There are two almost identical versions of the collection. One version will stay together as a complete set; the other will be sold across the world as separate items. In some cases, twin images form one stereoscopic image.

Panopticum(Panopticon): a type of building whose architecture facilitates effortless central control, designed in the 18th century for prisons and asylums, but also used for hospitals, army camps, and museums. From the 19th century, “panopticon” became synonymous with places where ‘oddities’ were exhibited, alive or as wax models: criminals and madmen, but also freaks of nature, people ‘of different race’, and exotic animals.
