This is one of the group of paintings on paper being made as part of a record of a short time spent volunteering at the Jungle Camp early in 2016. This is one of the group of paintings on paper being made as part of a record of a short time spent volunteering at the Jungle Camp early in 2016. Washing up is one of the mammoth daily tasks for volunteers. This installation of huge-sized pots and pans were more or less the work of one particular volunteer from the Bridport Team Calais! Of course this is not an entirely accurate representation of that scene, and colours have been in part determined by the narrow range of earth pigments available. Version 1.
