Behind the little white doors of MAMA’s Wonder Cupboards was a secret world as imagined by artist Mylyn Ngugen.
In each box a magical scene awaited and featured busy beetles in a miniature wilderness. The beetles were busily working around familiar, everyday objects – dragging, pulling, shaping their world.
The objects used in FOUND created a link to everyday life that reminded us of the magic that exists just beyond the edge of our attention.
