HOBBS GOLDEN TOAST
Exhibition and performance to celebrate the opening of TOAST’s new Cheltenham store
We collaborated with Hobbs House Bakery to create a fictitious backdrop to wow visitors at the opening of TOAST’s new store in Cheltenham.
To mark the opening of their new Cheltenham shop, TOAST, with Hobbs House Bakery, presented a most extraordinary discovery. After countless trials and failed attempts, they achieved the impossible and created gold out of toast. The great and the good gathered for this auspicious occasion to witness the unveiling of the Golden Behemoth.
Hobbs House, the family bakers-cum-amateur scientists, imparted their claims and illustrated their findings via a small exhibition. This charted their journey from humble bakery to their search for Eldorado and back to Cheltenham to demonstrate the truth behind the mystery of alchemy.
“Brilliantly bizarre.”
