A touring site-specific installation using a caravan as a vessel for current projects ‘Misguided’, raising questions around how we map ourselves and our emotions. The caravan is a gigantic viewing box for looking both inwards and outwards. Themes of travel, neglect, anxiety and isolation inform the work and also a sense of being in place whether at home or away or travelling.
A project blog was produced and includes portraits of visitors to the caravan, and also a 'diary of emotion' to record audiences’ feelings, emotions and responses to the project. This took the form of a physical book with postcards written by participants - images below and here: http://internalstates.blogspot.com/
