RESIDENCE: PERCEPTION TOGETHER AN IMMERSIVE, INTERACTIVE MULTI-SENSORY INSTALLATION ARTWORK | Sunday, 10 July 2022, 11:00am - 3:00pm, City Arts, 11-13 Hockley, NG1 1FH

Enter an immersive, interactive multi-sensory installation artwork. 

Perception Together takes inspiration from synaesthesia. This is the phenomenon of distinct senses intersecting, for example seeing music or hearing colours.

The installation combines audio and visuals in a synaesthetic experience. Its content is crowdsourced, generated from artwork submitted by Nottingham residents. The artists have  invited local people to get out into green spaces, get creative and share their work. Will you see your submission?

Soundtracked by a soundscape that you can contribute to, drop in and become a living part of this unique exhibition.

This exhibition is the result of a bursary awarded through City Arts RESIDENCE project.

If you haven’t submitted artwork in advance, you can join in on the day! 

Grab an art pack and sit in the City Arts courtyard garden. Or take a walk down to Victoria or King Edwards Park. Your work will be captured, edited and added to the artwork before your eyes.  

About the artists
