 note = {In order to examine what expression means to children and how the environment nurtures their expression, two case studies will be highlighted in this article. These case studies involve using shadow to observe children’s creative expression when engaged in an interplay between themselves and another material. The first case focuses on “Playing with Shadows,” a project conducted at Reggio Emilia, an Italian preschool, and the second involves “Wayang Kulit ? Encounter and Connection through Shadow,” an experiment arranged at a primary school for the hearing impaired in Ishikawa Prefecture as a part of the author’s joint research at the National Museum of Ethnology.
The study has revealed that shadow as a material for children’s expression plays a role in “joining” two different worlds such as those of existence and nonexistence, science and art, the sense of sight and that of touch, big and small, and reality and unreality. These case studies demonstrate that a unique sense of time and space can be generated in such a dialogue between children and shadow. That is when and where children’s creativity blossoms.},
