Rubber band playground

Rubber band playground
One of the artist’s most exciting pieces, conceptualized to engage the local community in the art. lugufelo’s concept of a “banded maze” generates interest on so many levels. First, the bands and transparency of the maze created by the art is a beautiful, ever changing visual.
As you move around the piece, the façade changes and the art is interpreted differently. Next, the ability to change the artwork’s giant network of colored bands could be a way to spark conversations and intrigue around the art at different times of year. Most importantly, though, is that the art itself is interactive – it is meant to be climbed on, walked through, and played with. Once the piece fills with people, the viewer on the outside of the work is challenged to think if the art is the actual metal and rubber structure, or if it is really the sea of colors created by the movement of people through the piece?
