ILFDublin have commissioned three artists to create a message that draws on memory, story, curiosity and playfulness which will be posted to your home.
Storytelling helps all of us make sense of the world by creating emotional connection and excitement. Every year, Boundless looks beyond the traditional with a programme of experiences designed to engage with literature in unconventional ways.
In I Want You To Know, we commissioned three artists to create a message which we will post to your home. Drawing on memory, story, curiosity, and playfulness to deliver imaginative messages right to your door, I Want You To Know is about reconnecting with the world, and finding new curiosity and joy.
