You can see a gold inflatable Martian House designed to "withstand life on Mars" next to the M-shed on the waterfront until the 30th October. The project is led by artists Nicki Kent (also a UoB Library staff member -congratulations Nicki ! ⭐😀) and Ella Good @MartianHouse

The house looks like an inflated, shiny gold foil structure on top of a platform with a shipping container underneath which would be built below ground. Photographed with a clear blue sky in the background on a sunny day.

Maybe, if the government asks nicely, the Queen might pay for the dreadful Post Office scandal. Looks like she’s already helped one royal male … haha. Sorted.
