Freshness Mag recaps the Nike Flyknit Collective Rio de Janeiro opening of Ernesto Neto’s installation:
“Each of the over 600 visitors were presented with a sensory experience that began with a history and the benefits of Nike Flyknit technology, continued with exploring Neto’s colorful, twisted and suspended net, called the ObichoSusPensoNaPaisaGen.”
