Installation by Sagmeister & Walsh

Banana Wall, created by Sagmeister & Walsh features a wall of 10,000 bananas. The green bananas created a pattern against a background of yellow bananas spelling out the phrase; Self-confidence produces fine results.

After a number of days the green bananas turned yellow and the type disappeared. Then, when the yellow background bananas turned brown, the type – and the self-confidence – appeared again, only to disappear when all the bananas turned brown.

Yes, it’s only a whimsical design piece but still rather clever don’t you think?

Sagmeister & Walsh are two people:

Stefan Sagmeister lives and works in New York. He has worked for the Rolling Stones, The Talking Heads, Lou Reed, The Guggenheim Museum and Levis. Exhibitions of his work have been mounted in New York, Philadelphia, Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul, Paris, Lausanne, Zurich, Vienna, Prague, Cologne and Berlin.

Jessica Walsh is a multidisciplinary designer working in New York City. Her work has won design awards from the Type Director’s Club, Art Director’s Club, SPD, Print, and Graphis. She has received various celebrated distinctions such as Computer Art’s ‘Top Rising Star in Design’, an Art Director’s Club ‘Young Gun’, and Print Magazine’s ‘New Visual Artist’.
