Through her activities, Daniela Palimariu likes to emphasize the ambiguity of human relations, the need for personal space, play and daily subversions. Her art practice includes livable environments and objects, installations, semi-private events and drawings, all of which understate the ambiguity of human relations, the need for personal space, play and daily subversions. She made swing benches where people can sit and interact.
Wooden urban furniture – rocking sunbed, rocking bench, and slow slide
Daniela Palimariu is a Romanian artist. In her artistic practice she creates objects, installations and drawings focusing on several topics such as: the ambiguity of human relationships, the need to find personal space and to play, and the subversion of daily actions. Palimariu developed a project in balance and on balance with openspace.innsbruck. During her residency after exploring the neighbourhood’s spirit, the community and meeting local artists where she worked, she created objects for the public urban space. Each object functioned as a piece of playful street furniture involving people to interact and play together. People could lean, sit, lie down, stand on these objects and one person’s balance influenced all the other people seated or lying on these objects. In this way, coordination, or the intentional lack of coordination, influenced the entire experience.
For the exhibition, visitors are invited to interact with these objects, initiate new relationships and experiences and search for their own balance.
