Born to play
We’ve been playing ever since we were born. Alone or together. Outdoors or indoors, with objects, using our bodies, or with a computer, for example. Playing helps us discover how the world works. Being an artist is, in fact, one big game.
In Born to Play, you’re encouraged to both look and get involved. The colourful play trail on the floor leads you past artworks and activities. Make rubbings of the relief on objects such as a number plate, feel the materials in the sensory boxes, step into someone else’s shoes by dressing up, play with light in the shadow theatre, help build an endless jigsaw puzzle or play a game. We have specially developed this exhibition with and for children aged 6 to 12.
