"Universal Museum Touch! Great Exhibition of Touch Nogata Traveling Exhibition 2024"

"Universal Museum Touch! Great Exhibition of Touch Nogata Traveling Exhibition 2024"

The exhibition consists of six zones.

Section 0: Touch Zone

Warming up for tactile learning and tactile pleasure

Section 1: Sensing and Texture Zone

In a darkened venue where participants could concentrate on their sense of touch, participants went from feeling "inconvenient without vision" to feeling "freedom without vision."

Section 2 Connecting with the whole body

When viewers touch the artworks, which have been created using a wide variety of materials and techniques, with their whole body, the distance between the artwork and the viewer becomes closer and the boundaries between the two become blurred.

 Section 3 Seeing: Eye-touching Zone Seeing = obtaining information visually, seeing = obtaining information with the antennae (sensors) of the whole body. In this way, both "seeing" and "touching" are included in "seeing".

Section 4: Expanding ear touch zone

A variety of sounds become a gateway to an invisible world. An attempt to capture the vibrations of sound through touch.

Section 5 Deepening: The Heart-Touching Zone

To conclude the traveling exhibition, let's enjoy the experience of reading picture books and letting our hearts blossom with "Reading to Bloom = Ten Different Ways for Each Person."

Touch every piece!

You can take photos of all the works and of course post them on social media!
