Hello and welcome to 'You Had Me At Balloon'.
If you're here, it's most likely because you've come across one of our installations around Oxford. Through a series of public interventions, varying in scale and approaches, we hope to engage a public consciousness. We would like to get people to look up, to look down, to laugh, to think and just engage with their environment on a new level. We are not driven by any political, economical or environmental motives, nor are we here to sell anything; our installations simply exist to quietly interrupt your day with thoughtful curiosities. By making use of low-tech materials like balloons, string telephones or bubble wrap, we can afford to install our ideas without the worry of expense and let people interact however they wish. All balloons are biodegradable. And now that you're here, feel free to take a look around and share your thoughts or simply say hello. We're very interested in hearing how any of our installations have tickled you. As this campaign is ongoing, don't forget to check back regularly. |
