green with a touch of pink
project 366 (2012)

#53 of 366 – plastic perspective

A green wormhole leading to a pink paradise?

A pink kaleidoscope with a dash of green?

A pink stadium?

A home to giant pink bees?

Pink eye?

With the festival rolling into town there’s art and interestingnesses springing up over the city. This piece, ‘Air, Air 2012′ by Choi Jeong Hwa is a pile of green and pink plastic wash baskets tied together to form interesting shapes. As you move around them and the park they present all kinds of different viewpoints.

The three structures comprise 15,000 baskets and are tied together with over 150,000 plastic cable ties. For the environmentally conscious out there, when it comes time to pull it apart the baskets are set to be recycled and provided to educational groups for students.

If you’re in Perth during the festival you can find this interesting work in the supreme court gardens on the terrace.
