A Gust of Wind by Paul Cocksedge

For London Design Festival 2010, Paul Cocksedge designed 'A Gust of Wind' in collaboration with Corian®.

Three hundred curvaceous pieces of Corian® were exhibited for one day only, as part of the V&A’s Friday Late Programme. The ‘pages’ represented a stack of paper that had been blown into the air by a gust of wind. Each of these limited edition pieces were engraved and then handmade into 300 unique forms by Paul Cocksedge. Paul Cocksedge said: 'I had always thought of Corian® as a heavy material. This installation is challenging this perception, creating a very light and dreamy piece'. Supported by Corian.
