The 'Worry Ball' is an interactive art installation project that aims to explore the human condition of 'Worry' through an intriguing and unexpected medium. It constitutes a sphere constructed by more than 6,000 handcrafted Guatemalan worry dolls. The indigenous people from the highlands in Guatemala have been creating worry dolls traditionally as a remedy for worrying. The Worry Ball will become a temple of 'worries' as audiences will be invited to participate whilst juxtaposing first and third world problems.
