Who am I? An exhibition
for the whole family that will help you understand who you are and why we all
act differently. Funny, shy or lonesome, everything can be explained!
Who am I? takes you on a quest to discover what makes you
unique and builds up who we are... You will have the opportunity
to become someone else for a moment on a theatre stage. You will
enter a giant brain in search of your own personal genetics and the influence
of your life’s experiences. The control room will make you aware
of the role of a positive self-esteem in your personal development.
Is the concept of physical beauty such a social pressure that it affects
your personal self-esteem?
Once your quest is completed,
you will have access to an actual portrait of yourself, of your personality
features that you will also be able to print out from home. Little
children will pursue their own quest leaded by the Smurfs. It will
be smurfingly fun!
