Tremors: Multisensory Art in Gothic Space. Meet 7 artists exploring senses in their practice. ✨ Shivering is the state that can be triggered by interacting with a work of art. It is also a physiological reaction of our body or skin in response to stimuli. It can be caused by a work of art, both physical and metaphysical. The exhibition title Tremors [Drżenie] is corporeal and sensual as the featured pieces affect all senses. As such, one would typically associate interacting with an exhibition with the sole act of looking, but this time, our senses of smell and hearing are engaged. Seven artists were invited to participate in the project. Their past artistic practice has examined the notions of various senses as well as human relations with architecture and their surroundings.
