art project needs space

ghostboy's gnomes go a wandering throughout the uk

During October and November 2005, the renowned Bristol street artist, gHOSTbOY, is embarking on an arts project in which he plans to place a series of adulterated garden gnomes in urban situations such as galleries, forecourts, on walls, in car parks, toilet blocks and in other unusual public spaces throughout UK cities.
These works will play with the notion that, after moving to the inner city, the naive gnomes are compelled towards certain means of nefarious subsistence, so commenting on the dangerous lure that the big city has on the childlike (simple) dreams of the innocent.
A number of sites have already been confirmed, in Bristol, Wales, Shefield. and Birmingham.

gHOSTbOY is applying for Arts Council funding to further realise this project.

In order to help him secure this funding, he needs letters offering sites for the gnomes.

Can you offer a site, or do you know of anyone who might be interested in offering a site for these extraordinary artistic interventions?

If you can help in any way, please contact gHOSTbOY at:  info@ghostboy.co.uk

For further information about gHOSTbOY’s art visit www.ghostboy.co.uk
