Color Block No. 2, an exhibition at the Wexner Center for the Arts, is a temporary public agora of large-scale furniture for activating indoor and outdoor spaces.

The installation consists of four large-scale, weather-resistant modular furniture units composed of exaggerated, clunky, and colorful proto-architectural elements like columns, plinths, and walls.

Both incremental and mobile, this colorful installation forms an intense graphic landscape that conceptually and physically challenges institutional boundaries while offering practical space for gathering and repose.

The units can be easily situated to allow visitors to experience them throughout a visit, and their nature as both sculpture and seating allows for interaction with the pieces, encouraging rest, collaboration, socializing, and informal learning.
