My Art Shack installation was inspired by the works of Hélio Oiticica and Derek Jarman's Prospect Cottage showcasing several artistic skills including construction, ceramics, print and concrete poetry.

​

The idea behind this art shack was to provide a non-stereotypical, sophisticated and calming seaside inspired space where I or someone else could retreat to and engage in creative activity or contemplation.

​

The shack is constructed from old pallets, boarded panels, hessian fabric and corrugated plastic. 

 

Many of the objects were sourced from a recycling centre and repurposed or found on the beach, the brushes for example were made from feathers, twigs, rope and other seaside debris.

​

Paper, chalks, pencils, paints, brushes and other materials were stored in boxes, jugs, mugs and other containers.
