Today we went to an amazing, immersive art/music installation called Colourscape. It's brilliant, for kids and adults. It travels around, if you ever get a chance, go. We loved it.
The lovely Lottie of Oyster & Pearl blogged about it a few days ago, with lots of information about the project and amazing photos. If you haven't read her blog, do, it's gorgeous! Anyway, I loved it so much I just wanted to share.
It's in Bath for one more day, then in London in September - photos are no substitute for being in it, it's a strange and magical thing.
Hope you have a lovely Bank Holiday Monday.
Oh wow, that's just amazing!! Brilliant pictures! Seemed like lots of fun! It's my turn to say thanks now... ;) ...so thanks for your enthusiasm about our upcoming shop!! Thrilled about the whole thing! Have a fab week Rachel. Take care!! X
ReplyDeleteIt comes to Europe and Scandinavia sometimes Chantal, I'll let you know if I ever hear of it heading your way - it's amazing fun! And your shop sounds very exciting, I hope it goes really well for you, have a great week. xx
DeleteWow from me too! Great pics, happy week to come Rachel, Jo xx
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely - do look out for it, you and your little ones would love it too! xx
DeleteHi Rachel,
ReplyDeleteThis exhibition looks brilliant and definitely something I would love to take my family to. What a lovely, happy bubble of colour to be in : -)
Hi Trudy, how lovely to hear from you - thanks for following me! I don't know if Colourscape has ever travelled as far as Australia, maybe one day it will. I hope all is going well with Chris's recovery. x
DeleteThat looks amazing, there are some wonderful exhibitions to inspire children aren't there. We had one here in Brisbane that looked like a fairyland made out of sugar and salt- must dig up some photos and share. melx
ReplyDeleteI love taking the kids to things that are different from anything they've seen before, they enjoyed it so much. That fairyland exhibition sounds amazing, yes do share pics! Gald you like the new header :) x
DeleteBy the way I really like your new blog header. melx
ReplyDeleteIt looks really good, something really different for a day out perhaps I can catch it when it's in London. Loving your new blog header too.
ReplyDeleteOh do go when it's in London if you can, it'll be on Clapham Common - just google Colourscape and you can find out the dates. It is really different, the photos really don't do it justice, it's fascinating how the different colours affect people emotionally. x
DeleteLooks...colourful! Like your new blog header! Ada :)
ReplyDeleteIt certainly was colourful! I've been meaning to use these fabric scans for a new header for ages, then last night I got carried away on Picmonkey, and voila. I'm really pleased with it, think I'll be keeping it like this for a while! xx
DeleteThose photos are amazing! Looks like a fab thing to do with the kids. I bet my boy would love it. (Loving your new header btw!) x
ReplyDeleteHi lovely Col, glad you like the header and the photos - it is an amazing experience, hope it heads down your way one day! x
DeleteAlways wanted to do this so will check out when it comes to London.
ReplyDeleteAs for the doggie, she is lovely, but expect no sleep and lots of accidents, its like having a baby with no nappy on!! x
Oh yes do go, I'm sure you'll love it! My partner was the one who said he wanted a dog so I have made it very clear that he is totally in charge of training and housetraining it - luckily he works partly from home so hopefully that'll work ok most of the time! Fingers crossed...x
DeleteLOVE the new header! Yes keep this one.. it's cool. Yesterday was fab.. we need to plan a day trip. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks, I've been planning the header for a while, I definitely think it's a keeper! Yes please to day trips, both with and without small boys...xx
DeleteOoh, hello! Thanks for the shout, really glad you got to see it - magic, isn't it? x
ReplyDeleteHi Lottie! It was amazing, we all loved it so much. Thanks for spreading the word, might have missed it otherwise! x
DeleteIs this by Architects of Air? If not, it looks very similar to their Luminaria - inflatable sculptures you can walk inside. They tour their work regularly all over the world but are based locally to me and visit Nottingham in June usually each year for the kids drama festival at the University of Nottingham. Worth seeing - we've been loads of times and loved it every time! http://www.architects-of-air.com/
ReplyDeleteLOVE your new header BTW! x
Don't think it's the same but sounds very similar, it was brilliant - I'll keep an eye out for Luminaria too. Glad you like the header, hope you had a great holiday - welcome home! x
