DRIVIN' ON

1996

Installation

Single screen video, radio and red wooden car.

While working on her autobiographcal comic book Starvision, Starr began to bring her 2D illustrations to life in various short video works like So Long Babe and Inside Starrwood.

For Drivin' On she constructs a life-size wooden car from the Starvision comic. In the video Starr takes a trip around the East End of London while listening to her own personal radio station (Red Car Radio) with songs dedicated to people she has travelled with in the past.

 

Drivin' On is in the Ferens Museum Collection.
