ISABEL + HELEN: CONSTRUCTIVIST SWING SET

October 16, 2015

We love this conceptual swing set created for last month's London Design Festival by UK-based duo Isabel + Helen. A free-moving interpretation of the Constructivist movement, this interactive kinetic sculpture uses oppressive and heavy Constructivist elements in new and playful ways, an arch and subtle commentary on the extremism of the bold, graphic movement. The swing set is a continuation of their Constructivist Playground, created for the Victoria & Albert Museum's Friday Late White Nights exhibition celebrating Russian art and culture.  Visit Isabel + Helen's website to learn more about both projects.
