Sarah Stevens & Patrick Bonfield 1.
(Hand made device, recycled umbrella, copper, steel, fabric). A device exploring the forgotten individual histories of Oxford Street. As rain water collected in the under carriage of the umbrella, it would filter through the device, oxidising the copper, turning the water green. The water would then drip behind the user, leaving a temporary trace of their existence.

POWER
The electrical waste is collected off Oxford Street, being processed and disassembled into their various raw component parts. These are then smelted in the three blast furnaces, before being formed into the the needed parts. Taking an item that usually is upgraded and changing a product that has the potential to become an item high value, both in terms of craftsmenship and material. The watchmaking towers, move in relation to the sun to gain optimum sun light, casting an ever changing shadow on to Oxford Street.
