How can a bird that is born for joy sit in a cage and sing?
William Blake via David Almond (My Name is Mina)
Glimpse through to Hannah Fox’s installation on the other side of the Ouseburn river.
Below the bridges, in the jungly places, the wild
child lives and plays. You may glimpse them. Leave
messages if you wish, but don’t disturb them. Let
them be free.
Let them be free!
Playing with words is absolutely allowed.
My Name Is Mina, Davd Almond
How can a bird that is born for joy sit in a cage and sing?
A David Almond playspace, a Winged Tales of the North summer studio takeover for Seven Stories, the National Centre for Children’s Books.
The basement room was transformed into a nest and I devised creative activities to allow the imagination to soar and for lots of fun to be had.
