“Fish and Chips” by Wade Marynowsky, Michael Candy

Exhibiting Artist(s):

• Wade Marynowsky
• Michael Candy

Both artists have a performance based and robotics background. They came together to create machines that is both obsolete and abstract. One machine will throw chips at seagulls, another bangs rocks together under water, and thus attracts fish.

It is “a humorous wink towards Eadweard Muybridge: ‘Chips’ is a study of seagulls in flight”. It is also “a modified and automated version of a Lenonardo Da Vinci designed catapult”. Its main drive is a pre purposed windscreen wiper motor sourced from various car wrecking yards.
