I first met Cherrie many years ago in a dinky little nightclub. At the time we had mutual friends in common and by chance we were all out that night. The music was piercing and trying to make any form of conversation was merely impossible so after a few attempts we surrendered and danced instead. I remember from that night feeling refreshed to meet a person that carried so much positive energy and I was excited to learn that Cherrie would be going to Art School the year after as I’d still be studying.
It’s amazing from that first initial meeting how much we have both grown. Cherrie has always been supportive of me and my creative practice and now it’s time to return the favour.
Cherrie is the brainchild behind Caravan. Caravan is really the essence of Cherrie, it’s a nice play on laid back, energetic and FUN. – A free spirit if you like, exactly what Cherrie is and I admire her greatly for that.
‘Caravan is about freedom and abandonment of the mundane. Caravan is a reminder of the time you quit your job just so you could go to that music festival, and loved every second. Caravan is the ever present thought that there is no right way to do life, that happiness and love are your only honest guiding stars.
Caravan creations are created with beautiful natural materials, feathers for flight, leather to keep us strong, minerals to keep us grounded and love to keep us happy! The designs are inspired by nomad tribes walking freely on earth, global cultures and symbols, and of course spiritual freedom.’ -words Caravan
