Dominic Wilcox: Bloomberg





			2002 plastic, found objects This was a 'Platform 8' group project while I was studying at the RCA in London. 'The Bloomberg Building in London has four floors. Each floor has a gallery space that we were to fill. An idea emerged to group apparently random objects based solely on their colour or material. This then developed into the possibility of covering the objects in plastic by using a vacuum forming machine. After vac forming, the objects became less distinct, each one blurring into the other. The objects were removed leaving just the plastic.'






			The collection of objects were arranged back at the warehouse, in preparation for making the finished pieces.


			Before and after. The objects were placed into the vac-forming machine as shown. Then a sheet of green plastic was heated and vacuum formed over the objects.



			Two upright vacuum cleaners were layed end to end here.


			A broken chair, a kettle and a telephone are some of the objects in this piece.
