In the spring of 2020 our worlds were turned upside down. For many our homes and gardens became our sanctuaries. In response to our changing circumstances
Helium Arts began a brand new remote programme called Distance Creates, combining home-based activities, postal surprises and virtual sharing. Tiny Captured
Rainbows brings together the artwork of 32 young artists between the ages of 9 and 12 who joined us over six weeks this spring to document and colourfully celebrate the tiny moments in our everyday life.
Artist Ciara Harrison engaged the children in a project that asked them to observe the familiar and the micro in their homes and outdoor spaces. Each week Ciara chose a colour and the participants were invited to photograph objects that expressed this colour in their surroundings. The images in this book provide a snippet of what the young artists were observing during this time. Learn more about the work of Helium Arts at www.helium.ie.
