Escape to a surreal desert island! Explore our enchanting islands and enter a dreamlike world of sound, light and some very special surprises!
As participants walk on, roll over or touch this installation, they trigger the sounds of the weather, lights that mimic the movement of the ocean and some truly unique sea creatures, designed by children and animated by the Playable Streets team to swim around the room.

Presentation options
-
The Last Islands is an evolving interactive artwork where families create imaginary deep sea creatures that are transformed into digital characters inhabiting a sound-based island environment. As more drawings are contributed, the world expands and grows over time. The installation can be presented as a short-term pop-up, a medium-term community build, or a long-term evolving exhibition.
