| Lady experiencing life as a rabbit. |
Leaping Rabbit A device to alter a user's perception of Kensington Gardens, by giving the sensation of being a rabbit. A pair of periscopes is attached, off centre to a wheel. A user's view is lowered to ground level; divided to see outwards, rather than forwards and rises and falls, as they push the device forwards. The device includes ears and a tail, so that onlookers can also understand the product's purpose, avoiding any misunderstanding and the possibility of the user feeling self-conscious. This project was part of the PARK&PRODUCTS stand in Kensington Gardens in 2004. PARK&PRODUCTS was the outcome of the artist- architect partnership of Kathrin Bohm and Andreas Lang who were artists in residence at the Serpentine Gallery. Kathrin Bohm and Andreas Lang can be found at Public works. www.publicworksgroup.net Many thanks to them for their kind rabbit help. |
