Remix The Museum
See Brighton Museum like you’ve never seen it before, as the Brighton Youth Film Festival teams up with animator David Packer and a team of young creators as they present a visual remix of the museum’s collections. Collections, visitor memories, and the secret stories of the building are mashed and mixed up into a display with a difference.
Keep up to date with work on the display on the project Tumblr: http://ift.tt/1EH2jhh

The 19th Century Top 1%
These commissioned highly detailed watercolors give us a glimpse into the immaculate dwellings of affluent 19th century aristocrats. Decked from floor to roof in expensive fixings, these paintings were to be slipped into private albums and displayed seamlessly amongst other premium artworks throughout the residence. Featured as part of the House Proud exhibition.
Gail Davidson mentioned:
“The practice was very much an element of the growth of the industrial classes and the development of conspicuous consumption,” Davidson said. Many of the watercolors, for example, depict interiors filled with plants and organic decorations that reflect not only an interest in the natural world but also a growing trend to own rare and exotic plants. The Villa Hügel in Venice, for example, had a Japanese salon filled entirely with decorative elements that transformed it into a garden-like space; Berlin’s Royal Palace housed a Chinese Room with murals of tropical plants and birds that also soared above the space in a ceiling painting. Rooms of that era also feature real orchids and birds in cages, which people kept not only to impress but also to entertain guests.”
