Museum exhibit made by marking visitors’ heights on the walls

Slovakian artist Roman Ondák’s “living infographic.” Currently at Temporary Stedelijk, it was also an installation at the MOMA in 2007 called “Measuring The Universe.”

Over the course of the exhibition, attendants mark Museum visitors’ heights, first names, and date of the measurement on the gallery walls. Beginning as an empty white space, over time the gallery gradually accumulates the traces of thousands of people.
