One option might be a smaller display, like
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/raspberry-pi-7-touchscreen-display-with-frame
or
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/hdmi-8-lcd-screen-kit-1024x768
For power, how about batteries and solar charging?
Perhaps a combination of this:

with one or other of these:
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/high-capacity-lithium-ion-battery-pack
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/lipo-battery-pack
and a solar panel:

There are also switch-mode converters if a stable
5V is hard to come by:

Going back to displays, those above require 5V so
the RPi and display could be powered by the same
source.
