Reversible Destiny

Reversible Destiny at Yoro Park is an “experiential” place where you are supposed to encounter the unexpected. The park’s creation was a collaboration of two artists: Madeline Gins and Shusaku Arakawa. Everything feels a bit off at Reversible Destiny because of all the angles so as to adjust your senses if not your destiny. The park is a combination of domes, steep hills, trails and holes with trees in them. Critical Resemblance House is part maze, part house - the roof is in the shape of a map of Gifu Prefecture. Inside are desks, ovens, refrigerators, toilets, beds sticking out of walls and the ceiling. Insect Mountain Range is a group of rocks - meaning humans don’t have to be confined to the natural world and can choose alternatives. Exactitude Ridge is a bridge sticking out of the ground that stops and goes nowhere.
