Happy Friday! We took a mini Photo Phriday holiday hiatus but we're back!

Earlier this month Colossal (great art and design blog) featured a story on an awesome installation at the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art. Artist Yayoi Kusama created "The Obliteration Room" by taking a standard exhibition room and transforming it into a modern (colorless) domestic space fully equip with tables, chairs and various other household items. The white room serves as a blank canvas for the young visitors who are then provided with unlimited access to all different colored stickers upon entry into the exhibit. Take a peek at the evolution of the room and the end result of the interactive experience.

 

Pretty cool, huh? It's safe to say that if there were more exhibits like this when I was a kid, I wouldn't have given my parents such a hard time every time the word "Museum" entered a sentence!

 

Have a great weekend!

This week, JMI hopped a flight to the great Midwest, and spent an awesome few days in Chicago. We took in the amazing fall weather, beautfiul architecture, and got to visit with some super cool Art Buyers. We usually try to blend in when exploring a new city, but we couldn't resist the ultimate tourist attraction in Chi Town-- taking the 96-story elevator ride to the top of the famed Hancock Building! Once we saw the view, we couldn't resist snapping a few pics.

Are you photo-happy when you travel, or do you play it cool and keep your tourist status under wraps?
