Kent SMS asked Blueprint to cover the exhibition designed by Pippa Nissen Studio…….
Once Upon a Wartime brings five 20th-century children’s stories about the experience of war to life in a forthcoming exhibition at the Imperial War Museum. The exhibition, designed by Pippa Nissen Studio, uses the books: War Horse; Carrie’s War; The Machine Gunners; The Silver Sword and Little Soldier to provide an insight into the reality behind the fiction. Nissen’s role has been to create a unified approach that brings the fictional stories into the detailed and realistic settings required by the museum’s educative mission. ‘Working with the experts from the Imperial War Museum, we had to find a balance between engaging, entertaining and educating children without scaring them,’ she says.
