Meta Table Setting, Sheffield Millennium Galleries.

A 20 meter drawing transformed the busiest public space of the Millennium Galleries. The installation depicted an eccentric set of cutlery creations inspired by Museum Sheffield metalwork collection.

The enormous floor prints were each constructed from screen printed flocked sandpaper, hand cut into the illustration. Regimented lines of historic cutlery evolve and progressively fuse together to create a pattern of cutlery hybrids, which visitors could explore with their feet. The lift of the Millennium Gallery also had the cutlery design in vinyl around the glass sides along with scratch card silver wallpaper depicting outlines of Sheffield metal hallmarks. Here travellers were invited to scratch their own initials into the hallmarks creating marks of their own.
