Floor



This installment at the IMA titled simply "Floor" is one of my favorite pieces in the Indianapolis Museum. Found in the contemporary art gallery this work by Korean born Do-Ho Suh is a large 32 panel installation that is, as the name suggests, a floor. The floor when standing on it looks like it has vibrantly colored speckles, with closer inspection the colored dots are seen to be tiny hands with the panels of the floor held up by a small plastic people of many varieties all working in unison to support the weight. It is awesome and took from 1997-2000 to create, go check it out.
