Packaging Alchemy, 2016 :

As a companion piece to his installation of works: Iconic Object Metamorphosis, (see in 3D) Adrian Lee has prepared a new performance for Salon Acme 4: Packaging Alchemy. During this performance the audience will see the live transmutation of an iconic object, the 12-inch album cover, into a second piece of iconic packaging, the hard pack, flip-top cigarette packet. This new object will then be transmuted further, into gold itself.

Many thanks to Denisse Prieto, who auctioned the packets and covers to the audience so successfully, and Alexander de Villa for the photos and footage.
