Mike Smith Studio: Mark Wallinger










Mark Wallinger: Time And Relative Dimensions In Space, 2001.












Mark Wallinger: Forever & Ever, 2002.

"This was a complete solution wherein MSS designed, fabricated and installed this work for Mark Wallinger. Due to the fragile nature of this work (adhesive vinyl in three colours on aluminium sheet 800cm long by 400cm wide by 250cm tall) and its complexity, we were asked to undertake both the installation and removal of it at the various exhibition locations. This ensured that the work was handled correctly and was not damaged in the process of installation. The first installation was at the Bloomberg Space in London, where the work had to be lowered over a 6 metre drop before it could be assembled."




















Mark Wallinger: State Britain, 2007.

"The brief: The studio was approached by Mark Wallinger and Tate Britain to carry out a facsimile reproduction of the protest by Brian Haw in Parliament Square, London. We were to reproduce all of the items which formed the 40 metre demonstration two days prior to its removal by the Police. This was undertaken almost entirely from photographs, all the readymade items such as teddy bears, umbrellas and thermos flasks were identified and sourced. The painted or printed banner images were scaled and reproduced in a manner identical to the original. Over one thousand, five hundred items were amalgamated to reproduce the demonstration."












Mark Wallinger: Y, 2008.

"Mark Wallinger approached the studio after receiving a commission from Magdalen College Oxford. The proposal was to create a tree approximately 11m wide x 9.5 m high x 13 cm thick. The form would be fabricated in painted mild steel and permanently sited in a flooding meadow within the college grounds. The form of the tree was derived from a mathematical formula which generated the fractal type image. The studio undertook the complete package of work; from initial computer based renderings for the planning and proposal, through the design and fabrication process, to the completed installation in the meadow."
