Argentinian artist and visual art illusionist Leandro Erlich recently re-created the installation piece that was on display in London (covered) and transported the concept to Shanghai. As part of his first showing in China, the site-specific piece delighted passer-bys at the Jing An Kerry Center in the port city. Utilizing a large angled mirror and a facade that brings Chinese and Western architectural cues together, known as a Shikumen House, the structure allowed people to live out their fantasies of dangling from a building without the danger.
