<\/a><\/p>\nArt Moves is a\u00a0celebration of the extraordinary world of mobile art vehicles at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Bringing together twenty-five of the most ingenious and inventive art vehicles, Art Moves offers a unique showcase of mobile architecture and art as part of London\u2019s Open House weekend and the Park\u2019s arts and culture programme. This collection of vehicles which was selected by invitation and open call, is a visual experience that also prompts further thought into some of society\u2019s most pressing issues such as sustainability, new modes of architecture and transport, and how we interact with one another.<\/p>\n
Fine Art lecturers Tim Meacham and Adam Chodzko both exhibited their works during the event.<\/p>\n
