Two Bricks Crushed to Dust, Latex Rubber, MDF Supports
The second of two works created as part of the RE:DO project in Hildesheim. In this work, two bricks were painstakingly removed from a wall of one of the soon to de demolished buildings. These bricks were then individually crushed into dust in a controlled environment where all remains could be gathered and collected. This dust was then mixed with Latex rubber and set in a brick shape mould. Once set, both the bricks were returned to the place in which they were taken.
These bricks, now, part brick, part rubber, are more likely to survive the demolition process and go on eventually to be found at a later date.
