The Southbank Centre of the Hayward Gallery in London, England has become the home of a new exhibition called “Psycho Buildings". The installation includes a roof top lake, designed like an infinity pool, looking like you could row yourself right over the edge; a steel-plated “Life Tunnel†by Atelier Bow-Bow; a red fabric “Staircase V†by Korean artist Do Ho Suh and an inflated transparent fabric geodesic sphere named “Observatory, Air-Port-Cityâ€, which you climb a staircase to the roof and proceed to roll and bounce around while observers below enjoy the view.
The exhibition runs from May 28 to August 25, 2008.
