our small wonders
interactive public art installation
This art installation invited members of the Kranzburg library in St. Louis, Missouri to take a pause in the stairwell and write down the small wondering questions they would like to ask for a deeper connection in every day life. They were designed to inspire more connected conversation, and to brighten up the day as they shimmer in the sunlight.
