Artist Statement:
This mobile art installation and sustainable energy demonstration is an aesthetically beautiful, fully functional power and art station. Started with a 1981 Ward School Bus and outfitted with photovoltaic panels, high-capacity batteries, an HHO generator and a backup gasoline generator, the artists added an air compressor, a bank of solenoids, air brushes and a DJ station, in their quest for expressive applications for sustainable energy.
