The public art installation detaches the flat lawn from the earth it covers, folds it and structures it to form inhabitable urban furniture. Instead of the notion of people having to abide by the sign ‘keep off!’ people are encouraged to ‘hop on!’ and touch it, smell it, use it and sense it however we please. Floating green rejects sculptural iconography in favor of an urban surface articulated in diverse parts.
