The headdress Àkkàpa’ri is stuck into a ‘hat’ made from painted beeswax which is glued into the hair. This headdress is made and worn exclusively by men. The colour of the feathers used is dependent on personal privileges. Feathers, cotton and wood. Kayapó Mekrãgnoti, Pará, Brazil. Collected by Gustaaf Verswijver, 1992. Collection Weltkulturen Museum.

“Sky Blue, Crocodile Green, Lemon Yellow”
The world of colours is truly thrilling. What colours are there and where do we find them? In nature we come across colours wherever we look: in plants, in the animal kingdom, and in rocks and minerals. Berries dye our hands red or blue. Colours can also be seen in many different combinations on animals: for example on a butterfly’s wings, the feathers of birds, and the skin and fur of various creatures.
How do colours smell? Can we taste them? First of all we will discover the colours in the exhibition “GREEN SKY, BLUE GRASS. Colour Coding Worlds”. After that we will produce our own colours from natural materials.
For children from 6 years old.
