Andy Uprock
The Paradox Between Light and Time
An empty plastic cup is little more than rubbish to most people, but in the hands of Sydney-based artist Andy Uprock that same cup can imaginatively transform an entire streetscape.
Using a method called ‘Cuprocking’ that runs parallel to the culture of graffiti, Uprock has brought scores of bland streetscapes to life with colourful floating cup installations in Sydney, Barcelona, Paris, London, New York and Tokyo.
What’s Smart?
Uprock’s ‘cuprocking’ method uses no energy to create a stunning night-time effect.
