Welcome friends.

So I’ve been working on a little personal Project for some time now, which has taken my Whisper Gallery on tour ~ Guerrilla style.

The idea/concept

It’s simple and only a bit of fun really. Being a die hard IG (Instagram) addict, I’m finding it more and more difficult to show my friends my pics. I’ve printed a blurb book

I even created a new blog (thewhispergallery). So this is my extravagant attempt at regaining their interest and reigniting my grafitti roots along the way:)

The kit is all very simple. My old iPod Touch, its original packaging, and a printed guilded frame mounted onto foam board. (I did investigate an original antique frame but at a cost of £50, the foam board is fine for now;)

The video below will give you a better idea of the gallery in action.

So whenever and wherever I get an opportunity, I’ll quickly mount up my guerilla exhibition along with my QR code label. I’m only talking a matter of mintues for each show, especially If I’m in an extremly public domain ~ I dont want anyone to run off with my exhibition now do I??!!

So far I’ve micro exhibited at my old studio in Kings Cross, a Boeing 747 and on beach in Malaysia, however this was over 6 months ago and now I shall be taking the exhibtion back on tour around London. Keep an eye out for related posts.

Below you can see some the places I’ve stopped to micro exhibit šŸ˜‰

My vision…It’s all very well doing this on my own, but I’d love to have a guerrilla exhibtion with a whole load of fellow iphoneographers.

What’s next?

How to build your own Insta geurrilla gallery – I’ll be doing a proper post on how to create your own Guerrilla gallery, with more detail on all the kit. Imagine, If enough people create them, we can then work on the first Guerrilla exhibition flashmob or something??

Nano & iPad versions coming soon.
