Useless Vending Machine, edition of 50 trading cards, 2023

Available at Volk Gallery, Dundee, or by request

April 8th 2023 - May 5th 2023

Useless Vending Machine expanded the lore of Useless Machines (2021) into merchandise - a set of 50 cards in the style of collectable trading cards with pixel art versions of the original sculptures. Each of the unique playing cards bought access to a secret website where buyers could find an animated version of their card, creating further, questionable exclusivity and secrecy around the ultimately useless objects

One Useless Vending Machine edition is retained in Volk Gallery’s permanent collection
