Morphosis
Friday 30 August - Sunday 1 September
Come and build an extraordinary, playspace from bamboo.
Help build a giant bamboo sculpture
Imagine and build a giant bamboo sculpture when Morphosis comes to Abbey Green this summer.
The sculpture will transform public spaces with hours of fun for families and children.
Watch and explore as the play space morphs and changes in design throughout the day, creating all kinds of different shape climbing spaces to help build and explore.
It’s free to join in and suitable for families and children.
Please note: Professional photography and filming will be taking place at the event to document the project.

About Morphosis and Compagnie MOSO
Morphosis is created by Compagnie Moso, founded by Anatole Zembok and Christine Pierre.

They are fascinated in bamboo which combines mechanical performance, aesthetics, and environmental benefits.
They have been exploring bamboo and how it can be used since 2010.
They design, build and bring to life different bamboo structure objects - such as the play space coming to our borough.
