Camp Curious is up-cycled art installation, and a stage for performance art happenings. It is a chill out zone for lovers, and a vehicle to exhibit Rayzordoll's vast collection of found 35mm slides from the 50s/60s and 70s.
The central focus of Camp Curious is a wooden A frame tent. The fabric of the tent covering is made from 35mm slides joined together in a chain-mail fashion, using metal jump rings. It is a very simple prefabricated structure, utilizing very special and nostalgic materials as the building blocks. Camp Curious is also a time travelling device. Instantly, people are transported to other periods in history, by viewing the 35mm slides exhibited in the installation. During the day people are encouraged to snuggle around, and inside the tent. To relax, daydream and to view the slides which will act as sun catchers through the shifting daylight. At night the tent becomes a stand alone light sculpture. LED lighting and 35mm slide projectors illuminate from inside the tent, casting the images of the 35mm slides around the surrounding area.
Camp Curious, A Home away from Home... will be at Splore 2015 20 - 22 February, Tapapakanga Regional Park.
Camp Curious, A Mysterious History... will be at Sundaise Festival 2015 6 - 8 March 2015, Dickey Flat Wahi.
Please come back for updates....soon :-)
