The Process: Tearing Paper, Gluing, Adhering to the Installation

Meet Liam! He loves school buses, firetrucks
and trash trucks. His favorite colors are red,
yellow and pink. Can you guess what his piece
represents? If you guessed a school bus, you are right. Liam’s dream is to ride in a school bus.

Liam is a long-term cardiac care patient who spends much of his time at the hospital. He was one of the patients I worked with during the Fairy Ball, an event to create positive memories for patients and their families, hosted by The Children's Hospital Volunteers. Liam loved this project, and knew exactly where he wanted to hang his piece. His parents were extraordinarily grateful for his opportunity to visualize and talk about his wishes and dreams.
