About the Exhibition:
Access Projects is an interactive installation created by artist Owen Lowery that invites visitors into situations that encourage dialogue and play, with the hope of cultivating curiosity, exploration and expansion within and beyond the gallery space. Shifting color and undulating light bathe the space creating a joyful ambience, musical sound fills the space in response to visitors movement, poetry is created by visitors using 3d printed magnets on a magnetized wall and spoken language is transformed into images, sound, sign language and braille.
