The Light, Sound & Senses exhibition explores the concept of light as a physical and natural phenomenon and is designed to stimulate our diverse sensory perceptions. Visitors will be able to interact with multisensory artworks to heighten their awareness of space, time, light, sound, taste, and touch. In particular, the exhibition will present light as an indicator of technological development and as a cultural construct with symbolic meaning. Works from the collection and loans from TBA21 will be on view. They will be complemented and enhanced by site-specific and immersive installations commissioned from invited artists exclusively for the exhibition. Light, Sound & Senses seeks to provide visitors with a deeper understanding of the many dimensions of light, sound, and the five senses.
