As museums and art spaces remain closed, the Design Museum has teamed up with BOMBAY SAPPHIRE gin and designer Camille Walala to reopen the museum’s High Street Shop with the vital message that creativity is an essential part of being human and should be accessible to everyone.
For five days, wrapped in Camille Walala's unique visual style of bold patterns and colours, Supermarket, an installation by BOMBAY SAPPHIRE and the Design Museum, will arrive at the museum’s Kensington High Street home, stocking its shelves with essential items packaged in artworks created by a line-up of emerging artists.
Items for sale will include tins of kidney beans, tea, coffee, bread, pasta sauce, porridge oats, rice, toilet paper and washing up liquid. Special limited-edition BOMBAY SAPPHIRE gin and tonic bottles created by artist and animation director Ruff Mercy complete the range.
All proceeds will go to the Design Museum’s new Emerging Designer Access Fund – a pay it forward scheme that gives emerging artists and designers free access to the Design Museum's exhibitions, talks and events, supported by BOMBAY SAPPHIRE.
