Please touch the art.
Co-curated by Shannon Pawliw and Sophia Crompton, TACTILE brings together seven artists selected from an open call of 70 submissions for an exhibition in which touching the artwork isn't just allowed — it's encouraged.
Visitors are invited to hold, rub, turn, unzip, press, lean, embrace and play with works by Natasha Bakas, K8L35 (Kate MacDonald + Les Sears), Kate Metten, Anne Steves, Asma Sultana, WhiteFeather Hunter and Anna Dimoff.
Through ceramics, textiles, painting, sculpture and found materials, TACTILE explores touch as a way of experiencing and understanding art beyond what we can see.
