Artist Hunter has created various interactive art installations for the Bonnaroo music festival since 2018. Notable works include 'Grief Truck', which uses humor to explore themes of grief, and 'Joyride', a functional truck that promotes playfulness and joy. His latest creation, Big Pink, uses large sculptures to immerse guests in art in an outdoor, non-pretentious environment. Hunter believes engaging with art should not be confined to conventional spaces, and his approach encourages audiences to reflect on complex emotional themes with a twist of humor.
"It's a really cool way to share artwork. It's not pretentious in any way. It's outside. People are opening, expanding their minds..."
"I think it has connected with a lot of people. There have been a few complaints with people being, like, 'this is gross,'..."
"A Dodge pickup truck painted white with black polka dots, Joyride also features sculpted happy faces...and since the sculpted pieces are removable, he can drive it outside of art events..."
"That kind of kickstarted a lot of experimentation, making the sculptures moveable, but still heavy enough to not blow away or be carried away by party people..."
