Three hundred curvaceous pieces of Corian® were exhibited initially for one day only as part of the V&A's Friday Late programme. The curved 'pages' appeared to form stack of paper that had been blown into the air by a gust of wind. Each of these limited edition pieces was initially engraved and then hand-formed by Paul Cocksedge. Paul Cocksedge suggested the resulting pieces, which were be given away to the public as part of the event, should function as paper trays, becoming 'a place for wandering paper to gather'.
A Gust of Wind by Paul Cocksedge Studio was be exhibited on 24 September 2010 between 18.30 and 22.00, and was retained for the following week by the V&A. This installation was made possible through collaboration with the London Design Festival, Victoria & Albert Museum and Corian®.
