The Caravan of Curiosity - a mobile art gallery
currently home to the: One Green Bottle installation
I bought a broken caravan from the local farmers auction for £50. We stripped it out completely and turned it into a white box gallery, complete with a soft grey reception area. Most of the materials used were reclaimed - (except for the electrics and the paint)
The exterior was painted by a local Street Artist, the design came from his response to the dazzle battleships of WW1, with a twist of light hearted fun thrown it.
The Caravan of Curiosity is currently home to the One Green Bottle installation, a self-imposed, year long quest during which time 365 found objects were each placed in a glass jar. Each specimen acquiring a preciousness they had not previously had, resulting in a thought provoking museum-like exhibition.
