A collection of teeter-totters (seesaws) that briefly allowed children on both sides of the US-Mexico border wall to play together has won a prize from London’s Design Museum.
The three hot-pink seesaws were installed through the slats of the wall, with one seat in the El Paso, Texas suburb of Sunland Park, New Mexico, and the other in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. The artwork was put up on July 28, 2019, and removed from the politically charged border barrier after less than an hour.
