Interaction

Two people holding hands while touching the Stone of Love light it up in colours that follow a tune. The Stone of Climate warms the ground in winter and sprays mist in summer. The Stone of Communication records short voice messages and plays back other people’s.

Material

The boulders are hollow concrete, with the lighting, heating, mist and sound built inside them.
