Arbel: ‘In recent years we’ve faced challenging times that sometimes make it hard to see a brighter future. This project was born from a desire to inspire positivity, optimism, innocence, hope and to bring a smile to people’s faces. To do so, I looked back on childhood to experience again the optimism and innocence we once felt. I found inspiration in the playful visual language of playgrounds and I took shapes and colours from there to create my project.’
