Enviromall sculptures

By  Michelle Reader 2013

Dimensions
various (life-size)

A series of 8 figure sculptures created across 8 UK shopping malls, inspired by the demographic of shoppers in each location and made using waste collected at each site. The sculptures were made in public at the shopping malls so that shoppers could watch me work and ask questions, and the project was part of The Mall's Enviromall campaign. Malls visited were in Uxbridge, Wood Green, Walthamstow, Maidstone, Blackburn, Sutton Coldfield, Luton and Camberley.
