A Different Vision 2.0
A Different Vision returns to Plymouth Center for the Arts in a newly imagined way. Artists and audiences alike are encouraged to see, hear, touch, smell, interact with and even manipulate the art.
While a Different Vision began as a show specifically for the visually impaired, ADV 2.0 endeavors to expand how all viewers experience art through exploration beyond traditional viewing. The experience will challenge the notion that sight is essential for creating and enjoying exceptional art, while also emphasizing touch as a fundamental part of our daily lives and overall sensual experience.
All sighted and non-sighted artists, aged 16 years and over, are eligible to enter the show.
This is an open non-juried exhibition that demonstrates how art can be made accessible to visually impaired individuals as well as inviting all viewers to experience art with numerous senses.
Plymouth Center for the Arts membership is not required to enter this show.
Categories:
Sculpture, assemblage, fiber art, pottery, relief, kinetic art, wood working, mixed media and painting.
Awards:
First Place - $100
Second Place - $50
Honorable Mention
