In this artwork, the artists attempt to mine copper from the community to shoot back into the earth.
Materiel World explores the physical, logistical, and social lives of objects via a highly loaded question: can we keep it in the ground?
Mixing metallurgy and dramaturgy, the artists will attempt to reverse-mine community e-waste for copper, preparing it to shoot back from whence it came. Along the way, they explosively collide with the intersecting laws, ethics, and regulations that guide the lifespan of risky objects: as raw matter, as tools, and as waste.
The word "Materiel", as used in the title, is the military definition for equipment and munitions: non-human inventory managed by the armed forces. From swords, to plowshares, and back again.
In Materiel World, artist Loren Kronemyer is seeking E-Waste from the community - to be collaboratively dismantled and transmuted. Visitors can contribute their discarded tech – from tangled cords to dead devices – which will be mined for copper and lovingly re-cast for an eventual return to the earth.
