Object Design League ➔ BALLOON FACTORY


Chicago-based collective object design league presents their project 'balloon factory' on-site at the museum of contemporary art chicago until july 10. Replicating the manufacturing process inside a gallery space, this installation is organized into a balloon production line,with eight stations to illustrate each step: preparatory dipping, drying, latex dipping, handpainting, soaking, heating, stripping, and inflation


The designers share a previously hidden manufacturing process and personalize it, with continuously evolving latex shaping and coloring techniques. Only known to be made industrially before, the resulting balloons are mad, handmade objects that place the practice on the fringes of mass production.
