This artproject was inspired by a Mongolian game called Shagai.
The game items are made by bones from cheep skeleton(vertebra). The bones are being died in to different colors (purple, blue, yellow green). There are more than 300 different ways you can play with “Shagai” and the game is today manly used by nomad children.
This project deals with a large smilingly endless visual sight of a landscape. The outcome has a similarity in its visual language as looking back at the project in the Atacama Desert (2007).
The project also has a connection with thoughts about death. Playground might be a space where our lives and death are exposed.
Size: 30 meter
Material: Stone, bones, Mongolian landscape
Site: Mongolia, Zuunmod Aimag
