Wearable Play

Sunyoung Cheong’s installation Wearable Play is an exploration of an environment where children and adults are encouraged to play and utilize their imagination through the assemblage of common objects such as wood, plastic, foam, and fabric to create puzzle pieces and their own unique wearables that then become part of the exhibit. By assembling their own wearable objects, the audience participates in a performance, and their creations become a powerful component of the exhibition.

Date & Location

Performance/Installation will take place on Friday, August 3 at the Kansas City Public Central Library, 14 West 10th Street, from 2:00 to 4:30 and from 5:30 to 7:30.
