In the workshop inspired by the interactive sound installation Acoustic Horizon in the Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters exhibition, mothers and their children design wind chimes that transform the breeze into natural tones. In the workshop, which will be held in cooperation with HRDF and where mothers can participate with their children or individually, immigrant and local participants come together around the experience of motherhood and the unifying of art.

Capacity: 5 adults and kids (7 years and older)
