Murray Barker&Laith McGregor制作的混凝土乒乓球桌。

Commissioned by MUMA (Monash University Museum of Art) Monoliths limited edition concrete ping pong table series is a collaboration between Australian Artist Laith McGregor and Architect Murray Barker. The project evolved through numerous conversations while drawing collaboratively in the studio, and over social games in public spaces in Europe and Australia.

The works are perceived as enigmatic sculptural forms, built to elucidate the weight of the object in relation to the surrounding urban landscape, and conforming to standard dimensions for recreational playability. The concrete objects are grouped together to create interactive gathering hubs in outdoor social spaces.

The design of the copper detailing followed on from McGregor’s studio practice and builds upon the regulatory line markings of the typical ping pong table. Various concrete finishes and aggregates have been used, including rope lined-formwork, sandblasting, and polished concrete. The copper inlay is designed to patina over time.
