glow-in-the-dark skatepark

'otro' skatepark by koo jeong-A



koo jeong-A has designed a concrete sculpture which features a composition of different bowls connected by three different tunnels.
located on vassivière island in france, 'otro' stands as a fully functioning skatepark, but this one's a little bit different - it's glow-in-the-dark
eliminating the complications of an evening skate session. drawn to the surrounding mysterious wooded french landscape,
the korean artist wanted to create a dreamscape amidst the natural surroundings. the artwork is something that is meant to live and be used,
providing a sensorial experience to skaters and spectators alike.
