The Tradesman
By
Alec Stevens
2011 - 2012
Within gallery and institutional spaces the tradesman comes around with his cart to trade objects. Objects that he has made out of previous trades so that he can obtain materials for future objects that he will trade.
The participating public are invited to rummage their bags and dig deep into their pockets for possible tradable materials.
This close looped cycle is a witty and comical display of trading at its most raw.
