This monument of balanced structures looks to the idealism of retro futurism. These objects are imagined as independent hovering entities in some gravity defying field. Grounded in colours reminiscent of children's building blocks, ‘We Measured the Sky’ looks at the hopefulness that came with atomic and space age technology, ideas and science fiction, the house of tomorrow, an end to the world's troubles and the naivety to believe we would solve everything with flying cars, rockets and robots.
