And there is no denying that we here at CCHQ enjoy our nice tings much as the next con-sumer..

This is just one of the conundrums that has informed ‘Illegal Tender’.

More info and taster pics to come….

Elliot Francis Stewart finally dropped his piece, painted this wall on last Friday. In his own way, a social commentary on Ponsonby or a tribute to his mate Harold.

The last replacement was a cool iteration of the original, this time a brand new work is made and installed in the same spot the original was hung.

You can buy the art work your very own portaloo for those times you may need it !

Like the people who have this harsh Crohn’s Disease !

LINK

To support and encourage those living with Crohn’s and Colitis, four established and emerging New Zealand artists have created an exquisite exhibition to raise awareness of the daily challenges Crohn’s and Colitis sufferers face.

Due to the symptoms of bowel inflammation, Crohn’s Disease and ulcerative colitis sufferers often desperately need toilets. CCNZ is using Art-a-loo to raise awareness of those who have experienced more toilets than anyone else and to do so in an uplifting way.

YOU CAN BUY YOUR VERY OWN ART-A-LOO!!

Featured on TVNZ Breakfast on 29th July, the Art-a-loos are truly unique pieces of art that will never be replicated. Component’s Art-a loo captures the idea of a toilet being a beacon for people who live with Crohn’s. X Marks the Spot uses imagery and typography to make the Art-a loo represent the reality of life for so many people with Crohn’s and colitis. This piece also has an internal light which emits a glow through the roof and walls.

More photos coming! You can see this Art-a-loo displayed at Te Papa over the weekend 30 July – 1 August!

ALL PROCEEDS OF THIS AUCTION WILL GO TO CROHN’S AND COLITIS NEW ZEALAND (CCNZ) TO SUPPORT SUFFERERS OF CROHN’S DISEASE AND ULCERATIVE COLITIS.

Please visit www.crohnsandcolitis.org.nz to learn more about the group, and www.toiletmap.co.nz to visit CCNZ’s great new tool!
