The "Catch Me" exhibition features monumental paintings, as well as a large-scale interactive trampoline installation, symbolising support, freedom, and artistic expression. Originally designed as a rescue tool, the trampoline has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind artistic canvas, encapsulating the essence of the artist’s journey.

The exhibition champions accessibility and inclusion, ensuring that art can be experienced by all, regardless of ability.

A comprehensive programme of initiatives accompanies the exhibition, including specialised workshops, school collaborations, and accessible guided tours.
