DAN ACHER
Dan Acher is an artist based in Geneva Switzerland, founder of Happy City Lab.
He uses cities as playgrounds to create a sense of belonging and community.
At the center of his work is art as generator of social change across local and global communities; his city-wide installations create spaces where strangers come together and connect beyond their differences.
Urban Rodeo is an oversized interactive sculpture, a massive toy rocking horse.
The up-cycled materials used are a reference to the surrounding trees in the mountain forests. A childlike return to innocence.
