A Journey Around my Pencil Case, 2012
Mixed media
Routes to Theatres
6th and 7th floor corridors, lift lobbies, anaesthetic rooms and recovery wards
A Journey Around my Pencil Case is a mixed media installation transporting children from the wards, and taking them on a surprising and entertaining journey to the operating theatre. Peepshow Illustration Collective have created a route that incorporates hand-painted elements, sculpture and vibrant wallpapers. Follow the line drawn along the route as it climbs up into the ceiling, then dive deep underwater to discover glimmering jewels. A confetti welcome awaits patients the end of the journey; a celebratory carnival before a triumphant launch up to space.
