Spoilboards is a series of low-relief wall sculptures shaped by production traces left on the baseplates, or “spoilbords” of CNC machines. These traces come from the projects of many different artists and workshop users working with CNC machines, and are made by creating molds from different machines’ baseplates. The workshops featured so far in this project are Aldea in Bergen, Fellesverkstedet in Oslo, and the self-built CNC  machine of the Olso-based designer Jens Dyvik. The series is an ongoing project which will expand with visits to new workshops.
