BIRTH OF VENUS, 1975
.

This was my first coin operated machine.

2p in the slot pumps water into the bucket near the top. When the bucket is full it tips over, pouring the contents into giant cullender. The extra weight pulls the poster of Rachael Welsh out of the bath (the water has black die in it so she can’t be seen when submerged).
I placed her outside an art gallery at Camden lock. A week later I returned to find the coin box overflowing with cash, and the entire machine tingling with mains electricity.
