Public Farm 1 @ MOMA: PS1

as some of you may know, i've been volunteering for a project called Public Farm .1 by WORK Architecture Company. this project is also the winner of young architects program 2008 competition. and will be up and opened to public on June 20, 2008 for the 2008 WARM UP music series.

the installation located in the P.S.1 court yard consists of hundreds of cardboard tubes with diameters ranging from 28" to 34". inside the tubes will be flowers, plants and vegetables. the tubes will span across the main space over one of the wall. (so whoever has been to p.s.1 can imagine the scale of this thing) local farm products are also going to be sold at the site. and there is going to be a lot of fun interactive features with the tubes.

here are some sneak peaks behind Public Farm .1 :
