MAKES YOU WONDER
Site-specific temporary installation
Material: Printed media with adhesive
Size: each letter 35 x 35cm
Geometrical figure: 450 x 750cm
The work is a play with words applied on the tiles of the pavement, spread along the street in an anagram-pattern, which rearranged builds a sentence. Two geometrical shapes were placed between the words in a perspective, to give the idea of volumetric objects as islands of rest.
For a few weeks the use of the street changed, there was clearly another rhythm walking through the alley. The work had intention to shake up some curiosity. Youngsters played around, trying to figure out the sentence.
People make places more than places makes people so public space could offer many more positive situations to the ones living and visiting. To feel invited in the city is a new trend to make consciousness and feel respect. Setting up temporary places to meet, and play or simply “hang outs” where passersby can feel awareness and a difference creates good vibes.
WHEN YOU ARE FEELING RUSHED AND IN A HURRY, MAYBE IT’S TIME TO STOP AND APPRECIATE THE WONDERS ALL AROUND YOU
