Visit Benalla Art Gallery these summer holidays to enhance your senses in the live-animated futuristic world of Hello Future Self.

Inviting young creatives to see their own artwork come to life in an animated scene, Steve Berrick’s participatory drawing project transforms hand-drawn artworks from the real world. The artwork’s scanning technology is presented in a way that is simple to use and approachable, which encourages young participants to engage without assistance.

Prepare for the coming human techno infusion by selecting how to alter your avatars body. Which sense will you prioritise?
