The Forest of Lost and Forgotten Things

​

Collaborated with Aleks Para, Branwen Draper,  Dakota Pearce

​

With the inspiration of the magical haunted woods and childhood nostalgia, we created an interactive treasure-hunting project where your objective is to rediscover what you may have once buried at the back of your mind. In practice, each participant would have a list with things to find and relate to. Our artwork is made from several different materials including paper, felt, wire, and various other materials with a vast inspiration of the natural world with a fantastical and creepy twist to allow for textural/sensory stimulation. Creepy fungi, little puppets, eyeball flowers, spiders and scorpions are all eagerly waiting to be discovered all made with the inspiration of our own memories and experiences. Do you remember your toys, your doodles in math class, the people you’ve met, the creatures you came across and places you’ve been and the feelings that came with them?
