Peaceful Research operates at the intersection of motorsport, contemporary art and industrial design.
Founded by creatives shaped by Formula 1 environments and global sportswear culture, the practice treats automotive objects as material culture rather than nostalgia.
Automotive Objects Reimagined
From reworked bonnets to Ferrari V12 speedometers transformed into clocks, their work slows motorsport down. It reveals surface history, design intelligence and emotional residue.
This is automotive art without urgency. Motorsport read through care, not noise.
At Silverstone 2026
For The Pop-Up Hotel they are creating:
- A bespoke bonnet for Nigel Mansell
- A custom bonnet for BGP26
- Collectible reworked automotive pieces
- We hope to see Mansell sign his commissioned bonnet across the weekend, adding another layer of story to the surface.
Speed meets stillness. And it will sit trackside. You won’t want to miss out, so make sure you book early for Silverstone. What’s more, all artwork will be available to purchase during the event, and the artists are each putting a piece into our silent auction to raise money for Race Against Dementia, a charity founded in 2016 by F1 legend Sir Jackie Stewart OBE, following his wife Helen’s diagnosis with Frontotemporal dementia.
