SeriesOut of the Box Date24th October 2000DescriptionInspired by Michèle Lemieux's Stormy Night, Wide Awake follows a young child who is trying to sleep during a storm. The child's mind begins to think of questions: 'Who am I? What am I?' As the storm ends, the child moves closer to answering these questions. Wide Awake was a collaborative work between Brisbane children and artists from Queensland.
