»I considered the title of this work but it never come up. Following things could be related to the title. 1) I love to go out from the exhibition space because of BankART facing the sea. 2)There are so many trashes which some artists made and showed as art work before in BankART. 3) I want to make a raft using those trashes. 4) I think it’s not a question that the raft float on water or not but it’s good to be floating there.«, 2007 by Koki Tanaka.




"Public Sculptures", 2008, are little sculptures whose primary material is made up of found and gathered rubbish from the streets, arranged into new indefinable, abstract forms. These Forms, made of everyday life rubbish, are each cast two times in ceramics. These two identical sculptures become gold plated in pure gold. One of these sculptures will be left in a public space. It is placed on an arbitrary location, observed and secretly filmed till the moment when taken. What stays is the identical copy of the disappeared sculpture and a Video showing the Moment of disappearance from its equivalent.

»Gravity«, 2007 by Aleksandra Mir. The 20m high rocket was built out of junk and had smoke coming out of its windows. It stood in the Roundhouse, London, a former industrial train turning station that has since become a permanent performance space. The materials took five months to source from various scrap yards in England. Most of it is steel or fiberglass, plus a few tractor tires and several industrial fans, and the bottom part is a discarded tank from a toothpaste factory. Video.

»Waste Man«, 2006, was made over a six-week period at the end of summer 2006 out of about 30 tonnes of waste materials that had been gathered by the Thanet waste disposal services and by local people, and deposited in Dreamland, the area of Margate next to the sea and close to the station that had traditionally been the site of a vast funfair. The piece burnt in 32 minutes, sending showers of sparks over the crowd of spectators. By Antony Gormley.
