Missing Link

Artist: Felipe Dulzaides

Walk, run, bounce, jump or roll through a 30-foot inflatable rainbow-striped tunnel

This colorful project is a playful way to engage with the idea of constant transformation.

When you run and jump through this rainbow jumpy, ask yourself: What are the living creatures of today?  What will they be in the future?  How are humans changing now and what are we evolving into?
