Glasshouse Regional Gallery presents
sensorial
A Blue Mountains Cultural Centre touring exhibition.
This exhibition includes new and existing work made by neurodivergent and disabled people and those who work with them. The artists and collectives have wholeheartedly embraced the idea of presenting works that captivate our full range of senses and most importantly, can be touched. The works are invitations to enter each artist’s world and consider their perspective.
The aim of sensorial is to engage multiple senses and move beyond the dominance of sight within the gallery space. The traditional hands-off constraints do not apply. All the works are immersive environments which encourage visitors’ physical engagement through touch, play and interaction.
It invites you to leave your gallery conditioning at the door and allow yourself to be fully absorbed by these works, to lose yourself for a moment through play or active participation. Take the time to listen, feel and sense, as well as look.
