We are happy to present our last exhibition of the year, “Sensory Dialogues Through Touch”, opening on November 14th at 18h.
This group exhibition is the first of a series of exhibitions focused on experiencing art through the different senses. Running from November 14th to December 8th, Sensory Dialogues Through Touch features the work of 14 international artists who invite the visitors to engage with the artworks through tactile exploration. Its goal is to bring the often-overlooked sense of touch to the forefront, offering a more intimate and physical connection with the works on display.
PARTICIPATING ARTISTS: Parul Bouvart, Li Li k.s.a, Anna Kakhiani, Marloeke van der Vlugt, Gregory Lasserre & Anaïs met den Ancxt, Dejana Vuckovic-Simovic, Rachel Walker-Konno, Lies Aris, Anna Szvak, Senja Barthel, Rika Maja Duevel, Yuk Lin Man & Philip Ling.
