All They
Want Is Car Parks

This dramatic kinetic sculpture takes parking control to represent the
unceasing challenge the council faces in balancing responsive public services
with financial resources. The sculptural elements grow and shrink monitoring
data from parking administration. The silver form changes to represent
the gross revenue generated from parking offences, the green form changes
to indicate the number of traffic wardens employed, whilst the blue glass
form indicates the overall net surplus or deficit after paying staffing
costs. There is a delicate balance between income the council generates
from parking fines and the number of wardens they employ. Rapidly increasing
the number of traffic wardens will dramatically decrease the number of
parking offences leaving the council with high costs, and low revenue.
