FUNLAND: Pleasures & Perils of the Erotic Fairground

FUNLAND: Pleasures and Perils of the Erotic Fairground, an art installation by renowned London-based conceptual artist duo Bompas and Parr, features a selection of “carnival attractions” for audiences to enjoy and experience while they contemplate the sexual subtext of carnivals.

This immersive exhibition, commissioned by the Museum of Sex (New York), features five “attractions” designed to stimulate all five senses in both subtle and not-so-subtle ways. Physical, visual and olfactory experiences are utilized to give the audience a breathless rush of endorphins (similar to those released at the point of orgasm), challenge their strength and agility, and allow them to compete with and impress friends and lovers, as well as other patrons.
