Tentvillage - Dré Wapenaar

As a toddler I believed in gnomes and dwarves; those who live in red toadstools with white polka dots.  I was longing to visit these tiny 'houses' wondering how this unusual shape would feel from the inside... 

so imagine my surprise when I saw the evolution of this sculpture that turned up in a previous exhibition on this spot...

... turn into this now...

this is the opportunity to explore my childhood dreams...

  one open and 4 closed structures

let's go in...

in another climate I might consider living in here for a while
