The weather inside is frightful (house destroyed for Art project)
A fully furnished house was destroyed for an art project in which it rained 200 litres of water indoors every minute for a month.

The incredible exhibition saw damp set into the walls and after 30 days of constant rain the property took on an unpleasant smell.

As it gradually degraded and deteriorated from the rot caused by so much water, most of its fixtures were destroyed.

Items including a bed, pictures on the walls, sets of draws, luggage and rugs were all completely sodden.

Members of the public were encouraged to explore the sculpture's kitchen, bedroom and bathroom in raincoats.
