SCRAPCLUB Destructivist art project

+ More details

Describe what will happen during the experience

Scrapclub is a Destructivist art project exploring the motivations and effects of acts of destruction. We see it more than just blind rage release but also an activity that poses questions about value, heritage, vandalism and issues of waste. It also elucidates an angle of human object relationships, the actual physical interaction between human and machine that goes against the prescribed, consumer driven, planned obsolescence motivated production line.

​Art objects. We love the disfigured objects resulting from the destructive fury. Each object starts out identical on the production line and ends up uniquely distorted at Scrapclub by the invested emotional cathartic energy.

We supply you with sledgehammers and pipes to DESTROY various household objects such as TVs, washing machines, cookers, computers, musical instruments, office furniture and the occasional car….

all the objects are beyond their original use….everything destroyed is scrap…if it works we don’t use it…. All the remains get recycled appropriately.

Safety is of course paramount so you will be provided with professional safety equipment such as goggles, helmets and gloves (professional first-aiders are always on hand just in case)

Your bio and contact

We create we destroy, locked in a perpetual cycle. Scrapclub celebrates the forces of DESTRUCTION
that pulse in each and every one of us.

Surrounded by products manufactured en-masse to satisfy habits and lifestyle we find ourselves shaping around them, with them, for them. Intertwined, they mediate between ourselves, our environments and our needs.
Scrapclub offers an opportunity to retaliate.
