The yellow tubular objects around the central Royall Forum of the Institute for Contemporary Art at Virginia Commonwealth University are indeed art. And though their meandering form may resemble Play-Doh squeezed out of the “factory” attachment, you can take your ease on them.
They are called “SIT(UATION)” and come from the creative combination of New York City artist Riley Hooker and architect Nick Meehan. This piece is also a part of a larger, in-process exhibition, “MURRMUR,” which is an initialization for “Misread Unread Read Re-read Misread Unread Re-read.”
