Marvellous Mythical Mates: A Menagerie of Dream Pets, 2024

In Marvellous Mythical Mates, I invite children to explore ideas of belonging through imagination and creativity.

Participants are encouraged to design their own mythical dream pets, inspired by the unique sounds, smells and textures of Merri-bek. As new pets are added each day, the gallery gradually transforms into a vibrant and evolving habitat celebrating creativity and connection.

I also incorporate interactive experiences engaging smell, touch and sound, including a meditation station accompanied by the soothing purr of a cat.
