Activities
While being accompanied around the exhibition, the children will explore the works of Benni Bosetto (b. 1987, Merate; lives and works in Milan). Through sculptures, installations, drawings, fabrics, masks, carpets, jewellery and even special doors, she builds a rich and intimate universe. Here, individuals, organisms and animals merge and overlap, giving rise to dreamworld settings where anything can happen.

In the workshop activities, the children will explore the animal, plant and decorative motifs that bring Bosetto’s works to life. Special attention will be given to objects that transform bacteria, owls, molluscs and more into imaginative masks and elaborate headdresses. Taking inspiration from the exhibition, the children will have fun reinventing themselves according to their own tastes and passions, creating original masks and costumes.
