Joe Rush
Packed with a collection of repurposed art and design including an unmissable train carriage installation, the site has been artistically curated and designed by Benj Scrimgeour, founder of Flat Iron Square; with installations created by celebrated British artist Joe Rush of Mutoid Waste fame. A British sculptor influenced by the film Mad Max, Joe is best known for his mechanical, mutant and monumental works made using scrap metal and discarded tools; notably the Arcadia Spider at Glastonbury Festival, and collaborations with Vivienne Westwood and the Rolling Stones. Visitors to Vinegar Yard will be able to view Joe’s live onsite workshop, where his team of artists will work on ‘Stories from the Wasteland’ – an apocalyptic mechanical sculpture project that will be displayed around the site in the coming weeks.
