This free interactive sculptural exhibition by James Dive will be taking over the Customs House forecourt for two days. Over 40 recycled petrol bowsers will be transformed into everyday items such as a huge water fountain, a coffee machine and gumball dispenser.  Dive was inspired by the future of the electric car in Australia and explores this by taking a fun and quirky look into the future.
