About Cassie’s entry

Cassie Herschel-Shorland’s entry is visualisation in the fullest sense of the word.  It delights not only the eyes, but the senses of touch, sound (as it is opened and explored), curiosity, discovery and community.  It is literally many-layered, visualising the process of burying and then re-discovering the past.  Its direct, participatory nature imbues the original story with additional layers of meaning as each person engages in exploration individually and with a group.
