Caravan

Overview

A-CH architects are credited with designing some of Brisbane's funkiest and fascinating stores, notably Scumptious Reads on James Street. In partnership withThe Wandering Room, with the intent of showing how architecture and art can combine, the idea of Caravan was born.

Stationed in the Labyrinth section of the Brisbane Powerhouse, this interactive art exhibition aims to showcase a number of contemporary works, as well as providing artist led workshops and talks.The concept alone is not the most intriguing part of this new initiative. The structural set up of the event is one which is completely new to the Powerhouse; that of being built in and around a shipping container and crates.

Focusing on the use of recycled materials, under-used public space, and provided interaction for unknowing passers-by, Caravan is expected to grow and evolve throughout the Brisbane festival, crafted by the people who pass through it's space.
