El Bibliobandido
2010
Bibliobandido, or Book Bandit, wears a disguise and “ravenous for stories, roves the jungles terrorizing little kids until they write stories to nourish his insatiable appetite.” Launched by artist Marisa Jahn in collaboration with villagers in El Pital, Honduras (near La Ceiba), the program provides book-making, story-telling, and basic literacy support through a volunteer “library committee,” consisting of about 15 adults and pre-teens.
The Goat Pavilion
2018
Upon arriving at Hauser & Wirth gallery in Somerset in 2018 viewers were met by The Goat Pavilion, a striking collaboration between the artist Fernando Garcia-Dory and architect Takeshi Hayatsu of Hayatsu Architects. Commissioned by Adam Sutherland, as part of the group exhibition 'The Land We Live In – The Land We Left Behind' Goat Pavilion was a functional structure for goat farmers to use, including a fodder and feeding station and a milking station. The pavilion was inspired by the verticality of a mountain, echoing Garcia Dory’s earlier residency at Grizedale Arts, Cumbria in 2010-2011.
