Unit 2 Presents: Molly Hawkins
Join public artist Molly Hawkins to explore bold, vibrant and playful design. Drawing from her background in public art and theatre design, Molly creates immersive, interactive spaces that celebrate experimentation, community and joyful self-expression.
From crafting colourful murals and sculptures to interactive workshops, this exhibition invites visitors of all ages to explore, play and make art together. Whether tearing coloured paper to create collages, trying on handmade costumes, or crafting sculptures of imaginative worlds, Molly invites all to embrace playfulness and experimentation, proving that art doesn’t need to be serious to be meaningful.

Channeling our inner child, we create costumes from collage designs using scrap materials!

Imagining new art in public spaces!
We create models of the worlds we’d like to see. Using cardboard and wooden blocks, we’ll build a vibrant, colourful world bursting with imagination and curiosity around every corner!
