Miniature Worlds by Amy Corcoran
The Covid-19 pandemic has demonstrated a need for many of us to slow down and reassess our relationship with the world around us. Miniature Worlds focuses on the smallest natural entities in order to celebrate their otherworldiness and intricacies, and encourage the viewer to take notice of the natural world and appreciate the complexity of our planet's ecosystems
Presented as a newspaper, Miniature Worlds invites local residents to download this online newspaper and transform their front windows into interactive gallery spaces. Each page also contains a QR code that direct participants to a webpage that plays birdsong, which is proven to reduce stress and promote feelings of well-being.
Through scanning the QR Code, participants will fill the space around them with sounds of wildlife, which will act as a reminder of the importance of the natural world, and its absence from much of our lives.
To download, pop out the window by clicking the top right arrow in the corner and download from Google Drive.
