WOWdesign: Marloes ten Bhömer, January 30 - May 31
Krannert Art Museum, Illinois USA
Curators: Ginger Gregg Duggan and Judith Hoos Fox
Rotationalmouldingmachine designed by Nick Williamson
www.kam.uiuc.edu

After Hours presents the step-by-step procedure for making Rotationalmouldedshoe, from material developments and experiments to the pouring, moulding and de-moulding process, along with a menagerie of material tests and failures, culminating in the finished pair. The stylized representation of the manufacturing process resembles a factory abandoned in the middle of production, and comments on the aesthetics, value, and economics of the machine-made. Construct shows the step-by-step procedure for creating Beigefoldedshoe.
