One careful owner
Three artists come together to create an installation, which, coupled with spontaneous performance, will engage audiences with the work as we take on the persona of established antiques experts.
With the value of an object in mind such as subjective value being something that has both use and rarity and ethical value referring to the grading of objects, real or abstract, in terms of their importance, we offer an alternative 'cash in the attic' where objects are graded in worth against a new 'valuenometer' that uses random indicators to set the value. Used and found objects will be moulded and manipulated into new hybrid ‘desirable’ items or objects d’art that then will be valued by our team of in-house antiques experts and offered for sale to the public at the Art Boot Sale. All the items for sale will be priced between 1 and 100 pence, with letters of provenance to accompany each item sold, informing the buyer as to the history of the object or work of art.
