Artland: An Installation by Do Ho Suh and Children
January 27, 11:00 am –May 5, 6:00 pm
Suggested Ages: All, Adult Friendly
Enter an enchanting world of color and clay, Spocky Trees and Slimes in a fantastical ecosystem dreamed up in 2016 by artist Do Ho Suh and his two young daughters. This ever-growing and evolving series of islands is inhabited by characters and landscapes sculpted from nontoxic clay. There is no government or monarchy (though Slimes are known to have board meetings); buses look like floating rings and have no drivers. On Artland, most things are gender neutral—anyone and everyone can express themselves however they please.
As Artland circles the globe, from London to Seoul to Brooklyn, visitors are invited to add to its diverse species of plants and creatures and help imagine the possibilities of an alternate world. With these contributions, Artland has become an expanding platform that celebrates the creativity of a child’s mind.
