Funhaus
David McLeavy
TOAST, Manchester, UK, 2014
Image by TOAST.Funhaus was an ambitious installation referencing the popular kids game show, Fun House, in which contestants would navigate a brightly coloured and interactive soft play environment in pursuit of prizes.
Visitors to the exhibition were invited to take part in a variety of assault courses, foam pits, and balloon chambers, breaking down boundaries which traditionally surround contemporary art. The exhibition aimed to ask the question of what is required from a visitor and when do you turn from audience to participant.
Workshops, performances and a clothing fashion shoot tookplace as part of the expanded events programme.
