It was close, it was very close, but we are extremely pleased to announce that ‘The Wild Things’ is the Gottwood 2013 theme.
So, what does that mean? No, we’re not going to be re-creating Maurice Sendak’s 1963 picture book by bringing monsters into the woods, and we’re not here to interpret anything for you, but as far as we’re concerned – you are ‘The Wild Things’, and this theme is a reinvigoration, a celebration and most importantly an exploration of your imagination.
We want everyone to pause, take a step back from their everyday life, leap off the edge, and wander into an unrestrained, untamed, wild and wonderful parallel mindset celebrating everything in your life that is not actually there, but is locked up top, and in most cases is rarely given a chance to flourish!
We will be building an a magical backdrop of colour and vibrance, and we can’t wait for you to show us ‘The Wild Things‘.
See you in the woods, Gottwood x
