Photos: This Nomad parks curbside

A Tibetan meditation bell hangs on the front porch of Nomad, the tiny mobile home crafted from found objects by L.A. artist Dominique Moody. To the rear is a globe suspended in the domed door of an old dryer.

A look at the interior of Nomad, Dominique Moody’s 100-square-foot home on wheels made out of recycled materials. This main room functions as sleeping, eating, sitting and cooking area.

Nomad parked on the lawn of the California African American Museum. The mobile tiny house will be on view at the museum through Saturday.

The food storage and preparation area in the Nomad kitchen area. The counters and shelving units are made from scraps of Douglas fir.

A pitcher -- which the artist found in a pile of detritus -- is used for water in the Nomad bathroom. There is also a small camping shower.

Industrial washing machine doors on Nomad get new life as windows.

Nomad’s recycled materials include bits of wood and these industrial washing machine doors, which function as the mobile home’s windows.

The bathroom’s sink doesn’t have a drain or running water; a pitcher is used instead.

Nomad’s mailbox is among the pieces salvaged by Los Angeles artist Dominique Moody.

L.A. artist Dominique Moody hosts an open house for her mobile dwelling Nomad, which stands for Narrative, Odyssey, Manifesting, Artistic, Dreams. She’s usually parked at the Zorthian Ranch in Altadena, but is in residency at the California African American Museum through Saturday.
