Staking its claim as the art and commerce exhibition comes the second Playtime New York held March 6-8, 2011, in a loft-like setting in Manhattan's chic SoHo neighborhood.

Scattered throughout the aisles artists erected site specific "Trend Spaces" that depicted the show's theme: "an Adventure."

It was an adventure to move from booth to booth of modern European and domestic collections and then encounter a work such as Pratt Institute alumni Joshua Ben Longo's "In the Human Body," a felt and cloth soft sculpture that allows "little explorers" to "sail through arteries as heroes, climb over the heart, slide down the colon."

Two Pratt Institute students, Matthew Speedy and Collin Townsend Velkoff, produced pieces that explored our waking and unconscious worlds. Speedy's "In Between Dream and Reality" featured sculptures made of fabric, clay and foam, an "enchanting world[s] where colors are flashy and materials are glimmering."

Townsend Velkoff's "On the Ice Caps" presented sculptural forms based on "Scandinavian mythology: A boy who gets transformed into a troll is sent on a task to bring back Odin's (former kind of the gods) Spear: Gungnir."
