USA : 1986 Arbor Project
On reflection, the intangible success of this Participatory installation is in the tension between the sculptural score of the project and the actuality of making it. The participants had enough material to work with, a rudimentary scaled model as a non-verbal "instruction kit." Volunteers were there to contain them at the beginning but in the act of tying and making it work, each participant problem-solved and came to their own creative solution. The "barnraising" element of the installation brought out the collective intelligence of the project. That one could not be wrong during participation was a very important part of the experience.
After the event, the models and drawings for the Participatory Installation were exhibited, seen in the following page.
