FLAGSHIP SNACKART MACHINE @ REVERSE GARBAGE 2010     SnackArt goes it alone to become a solely art machine and finds a new home at Reverse Garbage. Through a variety of circumstances SnackArt says thank you very much and farewell to Paul Long or Victory Vending. I will miss the conflation of chips, chocolate and art which was the genesis of this project,  but welcome the opportunity to offer more exhibiting spaces. Reverse Garbage's focus on salvage and reuse will be reflected in the work for offer in the machine.  Either the artists' materials are intrinsically reclaimed , as in the form of collage, or the packaging, which we throw away, will use recycled materials giving us pause for thought over our nurtured predilection for shiny new plastic. I am personally glad to have this aspect as an overarching ethic for SnackArt since I struggle with in a world already stuffed full.
