Make and drape a cape.

Dennis Golding was given a batman cape when he was five. Since then he’s been wondering about who gets to be a hero and who doesn’t.

What do you think are the qualities that a hero possesses?

Today, Dennis lives in Sydney and is from the Kamilaroi/Gamilaraay nation which is in northern New South Wales and crosses into Southern Queensland. In his work he explores strength, power and resilience. He invites us all to be super heroes.

Make and drape a cape that signals who you are. Celebrate your strengths and tell us all about your super power.

Create a design for a cape that is inspired by the things you love. You could use an old t-shirt or bed sheet for the base of your cape and embellish it with paint, sequins, fabric or glitter. Photograph yourself wearing your cape.
