Activities
While being accompanied around the exhibition, the children will explore the works of Benni Bosetto (b. 1987, Merate; lives and works in Milan). Her art focuses on human experience and questions of identity, and particularly on the physical presence of the body. Drawings, sculptures and installations come together to create an intimate, stratified world where people, organisms and animals coexist and intertwine. The exhibition space becomes a home made up of different settings, creating dreamlike atmospheres where anything feels possible.

In the workshop activities, the children will have fun tracing connections between Bosetto’s works and the parts of the body linked to our five senses. With the support of the arts tutors, they will discover how sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell can act as gateways to entirely new creative worlds.
