The Caravan Show
Grenville Horner

June & July 2025

My latest project draws inspiration from a toy caravan that was designed and manufactured in the early 1970s. This particular piece has captivated my
imagination, serving as the central element around which my creative exploration revolves.

With the caravan as my focal point, I am delving into various themes such as scale, texture, transformation, and multiplicity. These themes will guide the development of a diverse body of work that includes both two-dimensional and three-dimensional pieces.

The intention is to create a cohesive collection of artworks that will ultimately come together to form a larger installation. This installation will be titled ‘The Caravan Show,’ showcasing the interplay between the individual pieces and their collective narrative.

Through this project, I aim to engage viewers in a dialogue about nostalgia, memory, and the significance of objects in our lives. The caravan serves not only as an artistic centerpiece but also as a catalyst for broader reflections on these themes. Oh, and it should be fun!
