DI 2018: Embrace The Unknown

Towering above the concrete square that is the Artscape Theatre Piazza, Morag Myerscough’s Embrace the Unknown was specially designed for Design Indaba Festival 2018.

An event that deals in both the cerebral and the visceral, the interactive sculpture was built as a site where festival-goers could kickback, play, and digest the Conference talks during the day, and revel in the festivities of Nightscape in the evening.

“This piece here, Embrace the Unknown, was totally in response to this square here [the Artscape Theatre Piazza] where I spoke with [Design] Indaba about when people attend conferences, they come to listen to things but in between you need somewhere to release your energy and relax,” explains Myerscough.
