I think it was the dead rabbit that initially drew me to this event but when I read on I couldn’t help but be intrigued. The Family Event Installation explores our knowledge of ‘family’ and in particular the relationships between family members and how they change over time.

According to the artist Naomi Kendrick, ‘The work takes us on a journey in which surreal flashbacks associated with early memory are recalled; objects are unearthed through a process of seeing, opening, touching, smelling, listening; and stories are glimpsed, though fact and fiction remain blurred.’

The interactive nature of this installation appeals to me and particularly the use of the different sense.
