about the competition
now in its fifth year, 100% rubber continues to flourish. any concerns that such a specialist competition might run out of steam have been totally squashed by the glorious originality and diversity of the entries that pour in each year from all over the world. no longer confined to the functional - the utilitarian welly boot and rubber glove - or the fetishist, rubber is stretching, curving and moulding itself into a new design identity.
100% rubber 2002 is open to any artist, designer or student who uses rubber in their work on a functional or purely aesthetic basis. the amount of rubber used may be tiny, or the whole entry may be made of rubber. the objective is to find innovative uses for rubber in design, with an emphasis on creativity and wit.
