See-saw installed at US-Mexico border wall lets children play

One fine day at a portion of the dull and stark US-mexico border wall, there was a burst of colour and an unlikely sight-that of children playing on see-saws. This scene was the brainchild of the duo--ronald rael, an architecture professor at UC berkeley, and virginia san fratello, an interior design professor at san jose state university. They conceptualised the teetertotterwall in 2009 and were thrilled to see it ocme to life amid the grey desert where a wall divides mexico and new mexico. Many children and some adults engaged in play on the neon pink seesaws, rendering a surreal and magical quality to the day. The seesaws were set up in one minute and no permission was taken from authorities on either side of the border for the installation. However, the event took place without any incident. The brains behind the project, rael and fratello hope that 'people will see this act of joy happiness positivity and together ness and realise we are all the same on both sides of the fence
