czech artists turn billboard into guerrilla merry-go-round swing

four czech artists transform a rotating billboard into a carnival-like ride


in the urban intervention project 'kolotoč' ('merry-go-round'), prague-based artists vojtěch fröhlich, ondřej mladý,
jan šimánek, and vladimír turner transform a rotating billboard into a 'swing around'-style, carnival-like ride.
the team first gathered onsite with climbing rope, carabiners, wooden panels, and balloons. after mounting the structure
via its maintenance ladder, each secured his cables to the billboard scaffolding before lowering himself down
on his homemade wooden swing and letting the rotations of the billboard transport them in circles.
