COLOUR LABORATORY

They surround us, they are everywhere, they are our world. Colours. The interactive exhibition located on the Second Floor of BIBIANA introduces visitors to this fascinating phenomenon.  

The exhibition takes us through the black & white world, optical illusions, wonders of the human eye, contrast play, darkness, and colours. The Colour Laboratory opens its doors, full of diversity, symbols, variety, and the laws of physics and inventions.

We can walk through the individual rooms, through the primary colours – yellow, red, and blue. Yellow is the colour of the sun and happiness; it is energising and conveys a sense of warmth. Red makes our hearts race; it stresses us, but at the same time, it moves us, and we feel the love it conveys. Blue is calming and cooling; it transports us to water and the sea.

We are headed for the rainbow, for diversity. Indeed, the exhibition on the Second Floor of BIBIANA is a rainbow-coloured journey.

A COLOURFUL LANDSCAPE

Can you imagine being in a country where everything is the same colour? You don't have to imagine it, come and experience it! During this theatre workshop we will guide you through a landscape of four colours, where anything is really possible. We will peek into the world of shadow puppet theatre and explore its possibilities together. We will unleash our imagination and fantasy, we will find ourselves in places we have never even dreamed of before.

BLACK AND WHITE WORLD

What would the world look like without colour? A world only in white and black? Let's try to draw the world around us only in black and white, inspired by the work of Victor Vasarely and Sam Cox, known as Mr. Doodle. The idea is to experiment with different lines, shapes, textures and create our own "illusionary" black and white world.

BLACK AND WHITE WORLD - BLIND DRAWING

What would the world look like without colours? A world only in white and black? We'll try it out specifically using the technique of blind drawing, which gives children a unique opportunity to express their memories. This method encourages creativity and emotional expression while removing the visual aspect and allowing children to express their feelings and experiences tactilely.

MIMICRY

Are colours important in life? Can we use colours to mask and hide ourselves? Together we will discover the interesting world of colours and their importance in nature, where some creatures mask and hide using colours, which is called mimicry. We will learn how some animals use colour to survive and discover why mimicry is so important to them.
