![Journey through imagined worlds with Prefab Paradise, our upcoming exhibition with Amy J Wilson [@amy_j_wilson ] and Meitao Qu [@mt_qu].
Blending miniature dioramas and immersive technology, you are invited to explore futuristic habitats surrounded by rainforest, ocean, desert and grassland landscapes.
Drawing inspiration from BIOS-3, BioShock and the iconic Windows XP wallpaper, Prefab Paradise invites you to reimagine what a "perfect world" could look like. Created alongside workshops with young people from Art Press [@itsartpress] and Croydon School of Art [@croydon_school_of_art], the exhibition weaves together worldbuilding & collective imagination.
Full public programme to be announced, join us for the opening on Sat 11 July. Free & open to all!](https://turf-projects.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
