The artwork which has transparent plastic balls in the rectangular wire mesh structure presents different mood during the day and night while serving its role as a resting area for people to relax or chat on it like a bench.<br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Peter Um, the leader of the team said, “The outdoor deck located on the left side of the main gate of Seoul Children’s Grand Park has been left empty except the six benches on the surrounding despite its useful location as an intersection,” adding that “We tried to share the value of the neglected space for residents and visitors by arousing their interest with relaxing programs during the day and lighting at night.”<br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">‘2020 Seoul Urban Art Project, Seoul is Meseum’ held by Seoul City is a site-specific public art project with the participation of universities in Seoul working on public art.
