This event is part of our public + programming
Join artist Salima Punjani for an intimate gathering with the soft sculptures of Sensory Glisk. In this gentle session, participants are invited to slow down, make tea, and spend time with the playful forms such as oversized fingers, ears, eyes and tactile tableaux that invite touch and tenderness. As you explore the sculptures through your hands, Salima will create a soundscape using ambient synthesizers, weaving sonic textures that complement the sensory garden environment. There’s no formal structure, just an invitation to listen, feel, and be. This is a space for listening and sensory exploration, where touch and sound intertwine. Whether you sit in quiet reflection, share a sensory memory, or simply enjoy the warmth of tea and company, you’re welcome to engage however it feels good for you. Stay as long as you would like.
→ 3:30pm – 5:30pm
→ Free entry – no reservation required.
Accessibility Information: For this activity, the artist prefers if people are masked or prompted to not come if they aren’t feeling well. A mask decorating station will be open at the entrance to the gallery.
