Idea For Pod


I'm thinking to have these tree like ruins cast in cement and hopefully have the whole floor grey.  There will be some greenery growing on the ruins and will be shown along with the sound of urban winds.  I think it would be a nice contrast to some bright and lively work.  Comments welcome or you can email me.

Shanty town art installation


The work of artist Charlie Stiven.

Intricate details and simple installation. I thought maybe relevant as they look a little like garden sheds...
Also taking over a pod with lots of little components could be an interesting means of installation, like walking through an odd miniature street.

A few artists and stuff ....

How about stacking random garden related objects to cover a wall space? Vintage is good!



I really like this chaotic feel, for the entrance area perhaps? Also for the 'top of the mountain'/end of trip through the rabbit warren of pods area....
