Jewellery brand Tatty Devine has designed an installation for the Children’s Imaging Department at the Royal London Hospital to improve the experience for children visiting the department.

Titled ‘All That Glitters May be Bones!’ the installation was commissioned by Vital Arts, The arts organisation for Barts Health NHS Trust, and is made up of thousands of individual acrylic pieces, something the brand is famous for.
The pieces come together to form a kaleidoscopic effect in the waiting areas, corridors and in the treatment rooms which can be frightening for children.
Tatty Devine co-founder Rosie Wolfenden said: “We are delighted to have created artworks to fill the Children’s imaging department, helping make hospital visits a better experience for children especially those within our local community.
“It was fantastic to realise our ideas in such a different environment and we hope it makes people smile for years to come.”
The different colours in the installation serve to distinguish separate areas, including a pink area for breastfeeding mothers, and autumnal colours for the adolescent waiting room, which is different from the softer hues in the waiting area for younger patients.
