Third:
BEARables, Esther Nijdam
A collection of seven soft animals that look like ordinary cuddly toys
but in fact have some kind of iilment like for example a rash, tumor or
broken limb. These toys are like 'patients' that teach children about
the idea of caring and allows them to learn about sickness and health.

BEARables
Kameel met zonneallergie
(PMLE)...
Materialen: textiel, polychrome pigmenten
Concept: Als deze knuffel
wordt blootgesteld aan UV-licht, krijgt hij uitslag over zijn hele lichaam.
Hoe sterker het zonlicht, hoe paarser de vlekjes. Maar eenmaal binnen
verdwijnt de uitslag gelukkig vanzelf weer.
