My 'Failed Design Experiments of Climate Change Denial Machines' went on show at MARS Gallery, Melbourne in conjunction with Melbourne Design Week 2018 and the National Gallery of Victoria
The exhibition features a series of miniatures that explore the notion of climate change and steampunk mechanical design. Built partially into resin blocks these imagined machines were designed to combat the scientific fact of climate change. Each machine represents a failed design concept measured against its own engagement of design thinking; these machines eventually broke down and stopped working due to rising sea levels and eco-devastation.
But no one was left to switch them off.
