ARKADIA

Stephanie Rushton & Mally Mallinson

Installed at Longton Exchange: Sept - Oct 2021

Polystyrene, paint, wood, plants and construction materials

Digital photography printed on translucent window vinyl

Inspired by dystopian narratives from science and speculative fiction, Arkadia explores the Posthuman, our relationship to the natural world, the environmental impact of mass consumerism and potential consequences of climate change

THE GOLDEN FLEECED - A golden shopping trolley suspended in a tree, acts as a replacement for shop signage

SKIP OF FOOLS - A skeleton pushes a skip containing the last remnants of earth’s precious plant life up a mound of architectural debris

The windows displayed edge to edge imagery of entangled, withered vegetation.
