APT10 Kids features seven fascinating projects by artists from across the Asia Pacific region across QAG and GOMA until July 10, 2022.

Children and their families can engage with these projects, which celebrate inclusion and diversity, through hands-on making and multimedia activities, artwork displays, and large-scale installations.

Children's Art Centre, GOMA

Park Level - Monad 2021 - Indonesian artist Syagini Ratna Wulan invites children to transform large-scale mandalas on the walls and floor by using colourful, magnetic blocks to create patterns, with the intention of providing a calming and meditative experience.

Park Level - Pattern Exchange - Australian artist of Vietnamese descent, Phuong Ngo focuses on the manufacture and use of cement tiles in Vietnam and children can explore these ideas with Phuong by creating their own tile pattern using a collage sheet.

Park Level - Make Visible  - In New Zealand artist Shannon’s project, children can express who they are and what makes them happy through a digital flag making activity, be immersed in a colourful artwork installation and watch a video in which primary school students discuss diversity, love and the importance of feeling safe.
