Magnify: An immersive insect world (2024)

Dan Eleni Carey and Amelie Vandestock collaborated to produce an immersive insect world to launch Amelie’s debut studio album and celebrate 10 years of Wild Ground Creative Adventures. The show and art installation took place at the Blue Mountains Cultural Centre with special guests from Stuart Christie’s Bah-hah Circus School and was supported by the Blue Mountains City of the Arts Grant (Amelie was a 2023 recipient).

Both immersive sessions will feature Amelie Ecology performing songs from their debut and our special student guests from BAH-HAH circus. Plus, Wild Ground will offer the same creative and science-based activities at each session: a collaborative art installation, an “insect city” loose parts play space, sensory art-making, science investigations, and face painting.

There will be a birthday cake and a costume parade and prizes for best dressed insects (adults and children)!
