Big Bambú

Big Bambú is a work of installation art by identical twin artists Doug and Mike Starn.

[9] The piece was reconfigured into a gothic letter "T" to be photographed for the cover of the fifth anniversary edition of The New York Times style magazine.

[10] The installation on the roof of the Metropolitan Museum of Art was conceived as a giant wave cresting over the rooftop.

[11][12] Art critic Karen Wilkin wrote that the experience of walking on the roof terrace under the sculpture felt like "wandering through a bamboo grove.

Visitors are invited to climb on the framework of 10,000 bamboo poles bound by rope, which forms a labyrinth of winding paths and offers panoramic views of the Jerusalem cityscape.
