Excitedly Resting Installation 10:30am

Exhibition

We welcome pre-crawling babies and their grown-ups to explore ‘Excitedly Resting’, an interactive space for children under two.

Excitedly Resting is an immersive, sensory-rich installation inspired by the natural world, taking the form of a soft textile beautiful landscape that young children and their grown-ups to explore together. It was created to be a gentle space that is both stimulating and calm at the same time. Orla delivered a number of workshops in the run up to Crinniu na nÓg

In this session, babies may lie and observe, or explore the different textures, scents and surfaces with the help of their grown-up.

This installation aims to gently introduce children to art and creative experience from the very beginning of life. Excitedly Resting is a space where art is not something to look at from a distance, but something to move through, touch and feel.
