 LA RED, 2011

LA RED is network of small, simple toys in one color
forming a massive physical structure.

The tide of history has often been formed by great 
numbers with a common goal and our 
survival has 
always depended on our 
networking capabilities.

LA RED physically demonstrates power in numbers
incorporating 20,000 toys strung on 
50 cables each
measuring 30ft. Inexpensive
and commonly found in
Mexican flea markets, 
these toys individually, are
relatively
insignificant. As a unified group, they create
a
statement of power.
