Activities include:

Unity within Multiplicity

Create repeating patterns using coloured pencils and geometric templates in this activity developed in collaboration with artist Dana Awartani (Saudi Arabia/Palestine).

Monster of Wants

In this fun and imaginative activity, Malaysian artist Harold ‘Egn’ Eswar invites you to create a drawing of a monster that expresses the things you most desire.

If the seeds chose where to grow

In this activity Indian artist Rithika Merchant, encourages children to shape a new world by adding elements such as living beings, plants and celestial bodies to an interactive, ever changing landscape.

Wakuwaku

This activity reflects artist Brett Graham’s (Aotearoa New Zealand) use of traditional Māori patterns. He asks us to consider the natural environment where we live and be inspired to design our own patterns.
