About
How do you feel on the first day of school? Or when you win a really hard game? What about when someone you love is upset?
Artist Vipoo Srivilasa invites children to explore their emotions through drawing, dancing, and digital activities as part of his upcoming Children’s Art Centre exhibition. The project will feature a reprisal of Vipoo’s 2021 activity ‘Garden of Love’ along with fun new interactives, encouraging visitors to consider the spectrum of human emotion with curiosity and an open mind.
