A large "magic box" (4x4x3 meters high) displays the self-portraits of children from local kindergartens and primary schools, made during art lessons or in dedicated workshops. Each side of the box has three drawings divided into three bands, corresponding to the faces, busts and legs of children. Thanks to a programmed system, the three bands rotate horizontally independently, continuously changing the appearance of the characters and mixing their distinctive features in ever new and unpredictable compositions.

The Cube, with its rotating sections, becomes a metaphor for a world in which differences meet, mix and generate new possibilities.
Through this playful process, children learn that diversity is a strength, and that by connecting with others, they can create something new and special.
Kids Cube It is an interactive space of discovery, where children recognize themselves in others, exploring new perspectives and celebrating the beauty of community in a dynamic and engaging way.
