Geometry of Innocence

The acclaimed American artists Doug and Mike Starn are most recently known for their immersive Big Bambú sculptures experienced worldwide by over 2 million visitors.

Each piece, unique in shape, responds physically and culturally to the site where the artists and their team of rock-climbers are invited to dwell during the weeks of construction. All structures, built from “random chaos” with thousands of bamboo poles lashed together with miles of rope, reveal the invisible architecture of life weaving into a habitable sculpture.

Art Playground Ordrupgaard is proud to offer its audience the site-specific Geometry of Innocence, spreading over 100 m2. Winding footpaths reaching 15 metres at the highest point, create an artery through the bamboo environment, allowing visitors to experience being aloft in the work and hang out in the social spaces. The work is installed last spring by the artists themselves and a team of rock-climbers, and will be a permanent installation on Art Playground Ordrupgaard.
