Tree, forest and butterfly themes are reiterated in a mural entitled “Metamorphosis – Transformation in the Woods” for the children’s storytelling area. This mural depicts characters from Hansel and Gretel and Little Red Riding Hood set amid a fanciful forest of tendrils. A prominent yellow tendril creates a path that connects both “good” and “evil” – which lurks at the edge of each wing. Hidden messages are playfully rendered, warning Little Red Riding Hood to “Beware”, while encouraging Hansel and Gretel to be “Courageous”.


Trees and forests have a long tradition in children’s literature, and this community had expressed a strong attachment to the trees that had been on the site. Using this theme, I created a ‘gateway’ to the Children’s section, entitled “Trees of Knowledge” that transforms the building’s structural columns into stylized trees. I chose to simplify the branches of my design into simple shapes that call to mind butterfly wings. Playful monkeys and tendrils incorporated into the foliage hearken back to my native Borneo while also symbolizing the interconnected nature of children, parents and community.
