Just amazing to be included in the 'Creative Cargo' book which shows a collection of works and products from Portsmouth artists, makers and creative businesses. All packed up in beautifully upcycled vintage trunks, to be shared and re-stocked with creative goods from city to city as the cargo travels the globe. Such a brilliant idea and what a positive project!
Includes works from: All About Tea, Anglepoise®, Barbara Tipple, Bored of Southsea, I Love Dust, My Dog Sighs, Neal Layton, Ooh La Lapin, Pete Codling, Pie and Vinyl, Southsea Coffee Shop, Southsea Deck Chairs, Sadie Tierney and Strong Island....and lots more talented creatives.
