Description
Garden and Landscape Sculpture and Installations Nari Ward's "Untitled Depot/Estacion sin titulo," installed at Playas de Tijuana, was an interactive piece that brought people together. Dedicated to the healer and child in everyone, the installation was constructed from doors, bed springs, and other found materials that visitors could walk through and experiment with. Ward felt that the physical interaction that brought visitors together inside the installation was vital for the totality of the piece. The bed springs that encouraged visitors to jump up and down were based on Ward's interest in suspension, and the balance it implies between rest and motion -- inSITE97 Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 311, Folder 01, Item 403) [Title, Date].
