FRAME > Teetertotter Walls

FRAME cattura l’attenzione su Teetertotter Wall, installazione partecipativa (e politica) di Ronald Rael architetto e artista, Professore presso la University of California, realizzata nel 2009 in opposizione al muro divisorio tra Stati Uniti e Messico voluto da Donald Trump. Architettura, arte e gioco si infilano negli interstizi del muro con sottile ironia e con una grande forza politica in grado di abbattere i confini.

One of the most incredible experiences of my and @vasfsf’s career bringing to life the conceptual drawings of the Teetertotter Wall from 2009 in an event filled with joy, excitement, and togetherness at the borderwall. The wall became a literal fulcrum for U.S. – Mexico relations and children and adults were connected in meaningful ways on both sides with the recognition that the actions that take place on one side have a direct consequence on the other side. Amazing thanks to everyone who made this event possible like Omar Rios @colectivo.chopeke for collaborating with us, the guys at Taller Herrería in #CiudadJuarez for their fine craftsmanship, @anateresafernandez for encouragement and support, and everyone who showed up on both sides including the beautiful families from Colonia Anapra, and @kerrydoyle2010, @kateggreen , @ersela_kripa , @stphn_mllr , @wakawaffles, @chris_inabox and many others (you know who you are). #raelsanfratello #borderwallasarchitecture
