DOT Arena 2 (2)

It's up now and looking lovely...


... although they are still working on some bits - but hey, what town isn't slightly under construction


There are paintings in some of the spaces, ones that would be cutely small in a normal show could be imagined as vast epics since your sense of scale is skewed


You can write stuff on the bench in the park, I wrote something on the back, wonder if anyone'll see it


Mable Cable made some scary dolls, one is the Elephant Man I think


The Council House


Library featuring a www.richardpeel.com comic


The Cherry Tree pub


Invisible sculpture by Jason Thomson, there are instructions and you have to imagine stuff


There's a window in the floor and you can look down at a garden with pool made by Tom and Alex


Flashing Lights and Remote Control!: RobotGirl - you can drive her around and make her do performances.

Went to take my piece for the DOT cardboard Leicester that is in Sideshow (more on that soon). Here's a few snaps of the work in progress:

Sally and Ed working hard on the DOT reconstruction of Leicester in cardboard. People are doing artworks in this as well.


You can walk around, it's all different scale, and there are large buildings you can go inside.


Build still in progress


A lovely scene of Leicester


Some benches where Mable is going to do a piece.
There appear to be DOTs in the air, I think it's just a bit dusty.


DOT's Factory


Tommy's moon


Harriet holding up the sink she's making for the hospital


Not sure where this is, looks vaguely familiar, I should have checked all this...
