The Lost Gypsy is an automata gallery and theatre experience created by the New Zealand artist Blair Somerville. This is it. The Theatre of Winding Thoughts. This museum is a dedication to tinkering, and houses Blair’s masterpieces. Walk through the gate, wander up the path and find three converted water tanks filled with numerous ready-to-be-played-with automata. No visit to the Lost Gypsy is complete without seeing its main attraction. It’ll be the best thing to remember on your Catlins trip.
This is a place you could have never imagined to exist- and will never see alike. Here, at the far end of the world, artist Blair Somerville has dedicated his life into an ever-growing tinkering oasis. All he touches turns into art, and you’ll run out of ears and eyes to capture his inventions. In here, creativity is seeping out of every nook and cranny.
