ATTIC SANDCASTLES- A FLOOR RAISING EXPERIENCE
A major building and refurbishing project which not only included the raising of the floor- and our expectations-, but also the insertion of miniature new galleries and worlds.
PHASE ONE: Construction site (+ improvised interactions by Bbeyond on Saturday 15th October)
PHASE TWO: Exhibition

Look away; look around; look again.
As the floor of PS² rises up to meet the windows what novel possibilities will quickly inhabit the new spaces above and below? Clamber in and explore this absurd alchemy of internal and external realities from the outside in.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Rummage, climb, crawl, use, confuse, dig, build, change, play.

INGREDIENTS: bookie branches, builders at play, buses in training, carpet puddles, confusing commodities, corners, crazy paving, drainpipe periscopes, grass, hair-dos & don’ts, power tools, taps, trapdoors, umbrella utilities, video tapes, wallpaper, wandering buildings, windows, and wood.

ALSO CONTAINS: live and loose-parts.

MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF: mindful amnesia, playful interventions and topsy-turvy logic.
