The idea is to create more (1 or more) Heide Museums - but a small, transparent and intimate space only experienced by one person – that contains different experiences inside and positioned within different/changing locations.

Concept/idea is to speak to or critique the:

• Rent-a-heide - Commodification of land, space, art, view and experience (exclusivity)
• Heide as artist retreat, idea generator, explorer and growth
• Green house or incubator (hospital) used for healing, respite and growing - Hibernation or controlled environment away
  from society to provide accelerated healing or growth
• Disconnected and connected to the garden – stay out of the elements to heal
• Healing elements of intimacy and quiet in a large landscape
• Living Museum – mini museums recreating historical settings to simulate past time period, providing visitors with an experiential interpretation of history.
• Growing number of gallery/museum’s at Heide
• Artefacts housed in glass cabinets in museums – human as artefact (preserved)
• Experienced ‘plonked’ or ‘drag and drop’ locations of sculptures

Public Art: A mini house-shaped space for one person to sit within and experience either or both and internal (inside) environment and the external (outside).

Inside:                       Observing the environment and others in the environment

Outside:                   Observing individuals inside the house

Examples:

• The Studio: inside prompted to explore ideas, like a creative incubator – questions proposed on cards, paper and pencils provided.
• Healing Pod | Inside | a silent space or recorded sounds of other Heide locations (water flowing at Yarra end, birds in trees), warm, comfortable and meditative space.
• The Heide Hotel (sleeping pod) | Inside | Comfortable silent space to rest your eyes
• The Reading Room (reading pod) | Inside | Heide literature provided books, artists books, letter’s to and from the Reed’s, sound recordings of letter’s or stories about the place (Reed’s and
  indigenous.
• The Gallery/Museum | Inside | sit and hear recorded voices of visitor’s chatting at the opening of an exhibition or the artist describing a visual artwork in the museum.
