First, a short guided tour, during which child-adult pairs explore the materials, textures and forms of selected works, including Marcel Duchamp's famous Boite-en-valise. 

 

Now it's time to get creative! Each pair receives a small suitcase and chooses from materials such as velvet, sand, bark, seeds, bubble wrap, cork, wool… The challenge: to imagine and create a tactile landscape together – a world to explore. 

All creations are then explored with our eyes closed: what story do our hands uncover in this new realm of exploration? Which materials can we recognise, and what sensations do we feel? 

At the end, each pair takes their suitcase home as a souvenir of their journey to Kanal.
