"Ernesto Neto: SunForceOceanLife," a new installation by Brazilian artist Ernesto Neto, will open at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (MFAH) on March 8. Visitors will be able to explore the work, which is suspended 12 feet in the air, as they navigate itsf hand-woven passages.

Neto's artistic practice frequently involves creating immersive, sensory environments through organic forms and tactile materials. SunForceOceanLife continues this methodology, utilizing crochet as its primary medium to construct a significant intervention within the museum's architectural space.

The exhibition is due to remain on display for an extended period, concluding on September 7.
