Free Construction | Kyiv Biennial 2015 - The School of Kyiv
Free Construction, 2015
Practical participative architecture
This new architectural construction and participatory plat-form in public space in being developed in direct cooperation with the Frolivska 9/11 centre to provide "first aid" to internally displaced persons (IDPs) from eastern Ukraine. With the practicality, artistry, humour, and immense speed characteristic of the ZIP Group, this new architectural work will rise to the needs of the moment and remain in place following the departure of the art world hubbub. What is needed is a permanent roof to cover a IDP children's playground in winter.
Commissioned by Perpetuum Mobile for The School of the Displaced, supported by Nordic Culture Point.
