Injection Forming Harness
The Explosion Injection Former is designed to allow all people who are not artists to empathize closely with the artist involved in creating an object. Often lay people have the misguided impression that artists live the ideal life, full of free expression, free thought, and free time. The fact that artists often anguish over every element of a design, often are rejected by a society that cannot relate to a totally new concept, often take days if not years to complete an object from a concept, and will frequently go unappreciated by the public. This Injection Former can be comfortably worn by any person and uses an explosive charge to blow (extrude) a three-dimensional "creation" out of the torso of the person wearing the sculpture. While this process can indeed be explosively creative, the sculpture will also clench the wearer uncomfortably tight around the sides of the chest as a metaphor for the pain an artist often endures. Once set in motion, the Explosion Injection Former cannot be shut off, and the wearer must endure the total process of creating an object in much the same way that a compulsive artist often cannot stop working on a piece.
