Nella Golanda
Landscape Sculptor

The visitors are guided to experience new different ways and develop new social relations in public spaces. These “live” sculptures function as interactive experimental landscapes where the creation of new art genres in possible. Art gets out of the museums and becomes a part of everyday life.
