This project involved
the carrier vehicle and trailer garden.
Initially commissioned by an independent curator for the Victoria & Albert
Museum, London, the outline was to create a meal and recipe from lost or
unusual food cooking techniques. Using and testing the Carrier vehicle
as originally conceived, the heat energy from the engine was maximised
and used as an engine oven. I investigated fishing techniques and how to
catch and prepare a fresh beach fish from the South Pacific Ocean in Australia.
A fish was caught, and using basic ingredients and herbs from the Trailer
garden the fish was cooked on the engine whilst driving. The days events
culminated in a meal.

The work is instructional and
