Project Title

Description

This immersive experience starts with a table with a bowl with crinkled paper covering the contents. The visitor will pull out one of four crocheted objects and based on that, will go to the relevant computer and headphones, where they will listen to narrations (which will be identified through clay figurines that match). After this, they are invited to sit and read the illustrated book that contains four illustrated tales from Pakistan that have never been preserved in any way other than oral tradition. The room is designed in a way to evoke a children's library with warm lighting and comfortable seating.
