I took some time out of the gallery 'exhibition' in Manchester, to appreciate the interactive arts centre created for children and their parents, to bond with objects, spaces, materials etc. This giant 'wall' of suitcases and luggage, offered visitors the opportunity to write on a blank luggage tag "If you could be anywhere, where would it be?".
The result was a chaotic fusion of words, doodles and colour, more interesting than any of the official art work exhibited!
There was the usual responses of "On a beach in Hawaii" etc, yet it was the responses of children that made my day. It reminded me of the importance of not taking things too seriously in order to release the most creative of responses. The PC Plod example was a personal favourite.
