brazilian artist iran do espírito santo’s concrete playground sits just outside central park, echoing the facades of nearby new york city buildings. opened by public art fund, the architectural fragments that comprise ‘playground’ are realized as a contemplation between construction and destruction, while the negative space becomes an immersive installation. at first glance, the 13-square-foot cube appears to be built with individual gray blocks, geometrically stacked atop one another. but upon closer inspection, viewers are able to realize that the bricks are not connected by mortar, but rather a single cast concrete block which, as an optical illusion, toys with the idea of perception versus reality. missing corners of the cube, as well as fragmented openings form seats for visitors.

چون در فروشگاه پدرم مشغول به كار هستم تصميم داشتم بعنوان خدمات جنبي به مشتريان و سازندگان ساختماني و مديران پروژههاي عمراني ، خدمات خاصي براي استفاده از نوآوريهاي ساختماني بدهم ( زيرا ما بصورت موروثي جزء فروشندههاي لوازم بهداشتي ساختمان و مصالح هستيم ) ولي اينكار نياز به برنامه و مديريت پيچيده اي داشت كه مرا از انجام وظايف ديگرم در فروشگاه باز ميداشت لذا تلاش كردم با راه اندازي يك گروه اينترنتي به مخاطبين خودم آخرين دستاوردهاي طراحي و انواع ديزاين را ارائه بدهم اما مشكلات فراوان ( خصوصا" نوع اطلاع رساني ) اجازه نميداد ولي در این وبلاگ سعي ميكنيم بعد از ناكامي در ايجاد گروه اينترنتي ( بدليل مشكلات مربوط به خودش ) آخرين نمونه هاي طراحيها و ديزاين جمع آوري شده از فضاي نت را براي شما عزيزان قرار بدهيم تا زحمت وبگردي را برايتان به حداقل برسانم در حال حاضر به تنهايي اقدام ميكنم اما تلاش دارم اينكار را با همكاري بعضي ديگر از دوستان به حد كمال برسانم به هر روي اگر كاستي در انجام اين وظيفه مشاهده نموديد ، ما را از راهنمائيهاي خودتان بي نصيب نگذاريد
