For Pink Beasts, about 650 kilograms of string—handmade from about 15,000 agave fibers—were used. 10 hammocks, 30 sloths, and 25,000 hanging tassels, all vibrant millennial pink, dispersed amongst the Miami shopping destination’s luxury stores and pedestrian walkways. The fabric was dyed using cochineal, a tiny insect that has been prized since the time of the Aztecs for its naturally vibrant red color. (The cochineal live exclusively on prickly pear cactuses; .) Laposse’s project was a social practice collaboration with farmers and artisans from the Yucatán, making economic opportunity while highlighting indigenous craft traditions.
