Obang오방 is an interactive exhibition designed for children ages 0 to 5 and their caregivers. Inspired by the traditional Korean concept of Obang*, you are invited to step inside a house inspired by traditional Korean living and East Asian philosophy. This immersive and multi-sensory environment encourages little ones to explore their curiosity, engage with their surroundings, and share in a beautiful cultural experience.
Obang was originally co-created with families as an interactive theatre experience for babies through ArtPlay’s New Ideas Lab in 2019. This evolving project has toured across Victoria and to the Sydney Opera House and returns to its home base as a self-guided installation. This exhibition has been commissioned by ArtPlay, City of Melbourne.
*O (오): The Korean word for the number five. BANG (방): A play on words combining the Sino-Korean character 방 (方), meaning direction or cardinal points, and the Korean word 방, meaning room or space.
