Workshop description:
Part one (tide comes in)
Starting with the deconstruction of every day objects [shipping pallets, sofas, discarded objects] the workshop will engage with questions raised from Cedric Price onwards about reexamining the issue of permanence and consumer culture. The participants will then use the component part to produce objects of varying scales to be used throughout the EASA site. The deconstruction will be supervised to be almost surgeon like, the emphasis to extract the components in an undamaged form, rather than a smash and grab.
Part two (tide goes out)
The workshop will work on a deeper meaning of deconstruction. Throughout part one a lot of time will be focused on identifying the processes, routines and rituals of EASA. This will enable the participants to construct useful, considered and relevant interventions, but it will also feed into deconstructing EASA. Just as with the physical objects in part one, the participants will deconstruct our workshop and re-configure it in a new form.
