What happens when we see childhood through a kid's eyes? 'On Webkinz Mountain' showcases the differences between the parental photos of significant life moments and the unique scenes created by one of the very first generations to grow up with access to digital cameras from an early age.

“Being part of one of the first generations to have a digital camera at a young age, "On Webkinz Mountain” captures the special moments I had when I got to control the lens. Unlike my parents, who focused on documenting life events, I loved crafting fun scenes with animals, snapping pictures of myself making silly faces, and capturing all sorts of little moments. Without worrying about ‘wasting space’ on the memory card, these pictures now provide a delightful insight into childhood, seen entirely from a kid's perspective, and I genuinely believe that’s something precious.”
