Installation, Ivy

It is dated 2004. Its medium is polyconcrete.

Ivy is an ode to the freedom to play and decorate. The Ivyclimbing wall is simultaneously an elegant architectural element and a means of exercise. Its curvilinear, amoebic design uses ornament to transform sterile white walls into a playful, interactive environment.
