Drawing Mountains from Memories recognises the belief that a person is born with an innate creativity and a lifelong need to let their imagination play. It remembers the contribution Marilynn Webb made to ensuring a generation of New Zealand children experienced the joy of creating freely, by including a number of her recognisable motifs in this activity-based exhibition experience.
Drawing Mountains from Memories considers art’s power to make connections between people’s lives and their worlds. It acknowledges a time when children were encouraged to make their own personal meaning from their making.
Drawing Mountains from Memories extends an invitation to our audience to get lost in their own creative process, free from instruction and interference. It celebrates and values one's own expression.
