Rubber Duck Project by Thomas K. Feissner, CLVS
Seokchon Lake in Seoul, South Korea is the latest stop on The Rubber Duck Project’s world tour, and the Planet Depos – American Realtime Asia Team was on hand this week to find out what was causing all the excitement.
Conceived by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman in 2007, The Rubber Duck Project consists of a series of immense floating sculptures that culminate in the largest rubber duck in the world, measuring 85 x 66 x 105 ft. and weighing in at a hefty 1,300 lbs.
More than just a stunt for the Guinness Book of World Records, the purpose of The Rubber Duck Project is to “heal wounds” and “relieve tension” wherever it goes by tapping into everyone’s childhood memories. According to Hofman’s website: “The Rubber Duck knows no frontiers, it doesn’t discriminate [against] people and doesn’t have a political connotation.”
The Rubber Duck Project is on display in Seoul from October 14 through November 14, 2014.
In keeping with its theme of “Spreading Joy Around the World,” The Rubber Duck Project has traveled to cities including Amsterdam, Osaka, Sydney, Sao Paulo, Hong Kong, Pittsburgh, Beijing, Los Angeles and Vancouver in an effort to accomplish its mission.
Like The Rubber Duck Project, Planet Depos travels around the globe in order to accomplish its mission of providing the latest in realtime court reporting, live streaming testimony and videography services to attorneys no matter where in the world they happen to be.
