Info

Explore The Great & Grand Rumpus, a sculptural, digital, and immersive installation at State Library of Queensland.

The origin of the exhibition lies in the limitless imagination of children. This 15-month community engagement project invited children from around Brisbane to expand their imagination, and in doing so dream up a collection of fantastic, astonishing and magical things.

A community of makers, volunteers, and creative industry, arts and design students brought these things to life as a series of giant sculptural and interactive installations scaling five metres high.

In the make-believe land of The Great & Grand Rumpus, anything is possible – from sharks with legs to one-eyed creatures that shoot laser beams. Explore the magic that can happen through a creative, co-designed and collaborative process.
