Summertime in NYC means it is time for a new installation on the MET's rooftop. This year, Petrit Halilaj's Arebtare is the featured work between now and fall. His sculptures were inspired by childhood doodles he found on the desks of his former school in Kosovo, in addition to other student’s desks in Albanian and Yugosloavian schools. Arbetare symbolizes a generation of students who faced traumatic environmental conflicts in the 90s and pays homage to various pop culture references, sports, political ideologies, and art history.

...my doodles never looked this good.
They certainly look like children's doodles. How fun!
They do look like children’s doodles, but the back story is heart breaking.
Totally agree all this artwork seriously looks like doodling.

You captured all the "feels" with your photos. Children's doodles often tell so many stories.
