Amococo

Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air - explode softly - and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth - boxes of Crayolas. And we wouldn't go cheap, either - not little boxes of eight. Boxes of sixty-four, with the sharpener built right in. With silver and gold and copper, magenta and peach and lime, amber and umber and all the rest. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination. ~Robert Fulghum

"Amococo is an inflatable luminarium by UK company Architects of Air of labyrinthine tunnels and soaring domes. A walk-through sculpture inspired by natural geometry, this architectural marvel is a chill-out zone of the most unusual kind. We invite you to relinquish your shoes and your grasp on reality and immerse yourself in the breathtaking world of Amococo. This is sure to be a 2010 Adelaide Fringe highlight!

Awe-inspiring...
amazing hand-made construction...

intriguing effects of light...

so much fun for the littleuns...

exploring through tunnels and playing hide and seek...

the rain outside caused interesting sounds and you could feel the droplets on the walls...

we are glad we all experienced this.

Yet another construction which is the result of, as well as, incites imagination, happiness, laughter, delight and restful contemplation.
