Artist Jeppe Hein mod\u00adi\u00adfies con\u00adven\u00adtion\u00adal park bench\u00ades. As a result, sit\u00adting, along with all oth\u00ader activ\u00adi\u00adties that nor\u00admal\u00adly take place on park bench\u00ades, is often made almost impos\u00adsi\u00adble. Because the altered park bench\u00ades have kinked sur\u00adfaces. Some\u00adtimes the seat\u00ading area is miss\u00ading. Some bench\u00ades have such long legs that you would need a lad\u00adder to sit on them. How\u00adev\u00ader, oth\u00aders are usable or even more use\u00adful than con\u00adven\u00adtion\u00adal bench\u00ades, for exam\u00adple, if they enable a con\u00adver\u00adsa\u00adtion with eye con\u00adtact. Still oth\u00aders invite com\u00adpar\u00adisons to play\u00adground equip\u00adment. As a result, the mod\u00adi\u00adfied forms of the ordi\u00adnary park bench insti\u00adgate dis\u00adcus\u00adsions and con\u00adver\u00adsa\u00adtions about the design of pub\u00adlic space. Also, about for what and for whom pub\u00adlic space is, or should be, designed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
