Existing comment: Petrified River, 2018-2019

Designed by Antón García-Abril

Petrified River is a site-specific installation for the museum's garden that represents the transformation of Manhattan from wild nature to urbanized landscape. Three natural elements -- hill, river, and pond -- are the main components and are metaphors for "Mannahatta" or "island of many hills." The installation continues Ensamble Studio's fascination with structures in the landscape begun at Tippet Rise Art Center (Fishtail, Montana, USA).
