Recent Artistic Highlights - Automotivity

INVISIBLE CAR

Sara Watson, a 22-year-old student at the University of Central Lancashire, spray painted a battered Skoda Fabia to blend in with the surrounding car park at the Preston campus.



The 'invisible' car is now used to advertise the recycling firm who donated the vehicle.

She has had coverage from national press and TV, including the BBC, who have provided a short video clip available at the following link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/8034264.stm

ARTISTICALLY DRIVEN

I first came across this artist on Facebook about a year ago. Ian Cook, a Birmingham artist is now famous in the world of Formula 1 and motor racing events for his unique painting method using only radio-controlled cars.

He has gone from creating 'Popbang sculptures' in his studio, to successfully marketing a type of 'performance art for hire' as he puts on corporate shows.




He has had national press attention covering some of his recent works, and is at this year's F1 at Silverstone according to his Twitter entries. Last year he created a very cool 3-storey portrait of F1 champion Lewis Hamilton in London.
