The Tree, the Caterpillar and the Butterfly is an interactive exhibition combining the power of art, technology and nature to create a magical, memorable experience for all ages to enjoy.
The gallery is filled with plants, bird sounds and butterflies where visitors’ movements can alter sounds and colours of these unique artworks. Visitors can use a magical watering can to grow a fairylike pea plant in real-time, trigger birds’ calls using their mobile phone, and affect a multi-coloured field of butterflies through their movements using Xbox Kinect technology.
