BEHIND THE SCENERY THE AWARD-WINNING TEAM THAT CREATED THE DANGER TREE SET
COD STEAKS is a team that builds sets for movies and music promos. The Danger Tree exhibition set took four weeks to complete. Says Renae Cronin from Cod Steaks: “Part of the design phase is to create a narrative for the set, like identifying where a bomb has exploded, which walls would be affected, where the dust would settle, etc. Structural integrity of the setworks is crucial and so the challenge is building structurally sound elements which have the illusion of being close to collapse.”
KAVE QUINN is an award-winning film set designer who worked on Trainspotting, Shallow Grave, The Woman In Black and Far From The Madding Crowd. Kave’s brief was to convert the gallery space into a blown-out building from 1916 France. Hanging from the walls that are still standing are Scarlett’s paintings. On the edge of all this, surveying the wreckage, is a replica of The Danger Tree itself. “I wanted to give context to the exhibition,” notes Scarlett Raven. “Kave Quinn has done exactly that.”
