Commissioned to create sensory workshops for children with SEN/D in Squish Space, the under 5s play area at the Barbican Centre. The workshops explored sensory play and movement involving heat blankets, bubbles and music whilst interacting with objects made by artist/designer duo India Harvey and Lisa Marie Bengtsson, and sound and moving image from artists Di Mainstone and Xavier Velastin. Example groups include children with autism from The Garden school in November 2022 and children with mixed disabilities from Watergate School and College Park School in March 2023
