Concept

This installation focuses on teaching children about the ecological niches certain creatures fulfill within their ecosystem through a game that requires the child to match the animal and job together by placing it in the correct area. The installation comes with stickers, a zine, and a coloring page (designed by Brandon). The bright colors mimic coral found in the ecosystem while also enticing children to come and explore the piece. The sculpted elements provide visual contrast between the flat objects scattered around the installation.
