Light and airy, and brightly decorated with children’s artwork, this is a wonderfully creative space, which I imagine is used mostly by school groups. Here, we were asked to choose from a selection of cardboard boxes and given pieces of card in various shapes, sizes and colours, tape, glue and scissors, so that we could create a room. All the rooms made over the space of the week will then be put together to form a piece of art. Little E and Little O argued over which size box to choose, eventually settling on a smallish box that had already been painted yellow inside. They quickly decided they wanted to make a bedroom. Little E set about creating a bed and Little O wanted to make a wardrobe. I suggested we could make some glow-in-the-dark stars to go on the ceiling, like their bedrooms at home, while Cardiff Daddy was concerned the bed needed some covers and pillows. Perhaps a teething Baby I was to blame for his preoccupancy with a comfortable night’s sleep! From there, Little E wanted to make a rug, which she soon decided would look better as a painting on the wall; while Little O made a pirate plank. Because obviously every bedroom needs a pirate plank, and this is contemporary art, after all.
