Useful Edition
Production Show. Eastside Projects, Birmingham, March 2017.
The commission is based upon an object or service which the gallery space is lacking and proposing a useful and creative solution.
My Edition is a utilitarian sculpture intended to facilitate bike users in the locking of bikes to the front of the gallery space.
The Edition is influenced by rock climbing attachments and natural organic forms, with the heritage of Birmingham's bicycle trade taken into account. Birmingham built bikes frames and tyre impressions are incorporated into the organic forms.
