I love Ernesto Neto’s soft “huggable” sculptures.

Exhibited in Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, USA in March 2002. Neto’s sculptures and installations are indeed singular in contemporary art,” says curator Viso. “His works, which he describes as a ‘kind of body/space/landscape,’ not only arrest us visually but also make us keenly aware of the spaces inside, around and between our bodies. We become voyagers in sensorial odysseys
