After winning MoMA PS1's 2019 Young Architects Program this past March, “Hórama Rama” is now open to the public in time for summer festivities. Ana Paula Ruiz Galindo and Mecky Reuss of Mexico City-based studio Pedro & Juana designed the temporary installation as a 40-foot-high, 90-foot-wide cyclorama structure that immerses visitors into a jungle landscape.

The cyclorama has a panoramic image of a jungle on scaffolding that sits above the PS1 courtyard, which reconfigures the courtyard space into an immersive environment that allows visitors to move in and out of. To add to that, the installation features a functioning, cooling waterfall and hammocks that were made in the south of Mexico. Wooden “bristles” protrude from the structure's exterior to create a sense of movement.

"Finding inspiration in historical panoramas, Pedro & Juana have designed a structure that will allow visitors to immerse themselves in a fantastical wilderness, a visual refuge from the city,” said MoMA PS1 Chief Curator Peter Eleey in a statement. “By juxtaposing two landscapes in transition—the jungle and the Long Island City skyline—they draw attention to the evolving conditions of our environment, both globally and locally, at a crucial moment.”

“Hórama Rama” will be open through Monday, September 2.
