‘BUILDINGS AND BLOCKS’ is a playful installation piece created by Kris Moran and Martin Duffy. Both artists explore the ordinary and its simplicity in their artwork.
These ideas can be seen in BUILDINGS AND BLOCKS through its 37 enlarged children’s blocks with a black and white striped pattern. The interactive installation invites viewers to play, sit, and touch the blocks, making them a part of the process and piece. As mentioned in the description, it puts two contradicting ideas together to create the artwork and meaning like "playful and harmonious" and "vibrant tower and scattered pieces," to give a few examples.
BUILDINGS AND BLOCKS is a free exhibit that will run from January 10th to March 13th.
