1970's brought installation art to the world, however it is only within the last 10 years it has exploded onto the art scene. Artists such as Rachel Whitread create scenes within a room of an alternate perception. Here cardboard boxes were used to produce plaster casts preserving the detail and bumps on each individual box and later re-fabricated each of them into a translucent polyethylene to add an interior effect. Although it has no influence on my own work and I have little enthusiasm for this form of process, installation art is as big as ever and artists everywhere are trying out new ideas.
