...where sounds grow... (2026) 

…where sounds grow…

an immersive and interactive sound installation for our youngest ears, …where sounds grow…invites children into a world filled with living recorded sounds + objects from nature.

…where sounds grow… is a multi-sensory experience for early years children, which is rooted in sound and listening. This world contains some of the most beautiful natural sounds from ecosystems near and far, which have been composed into an immersive and interactive environment for children to explore. …where sounds grow… features a range of safe and natural objects that become musical instruments and encourage interaction and play to organically evolve. The tone of this space is soft, calm and is suitable for every child to engage with in their own way. We welcome you to …where sounds grow… where there is time space to listen to our world.
