The creative members of (SO)delujem focus among other things on the accompanying projects during exhibitions, especially on the multisensory tours. These allow the visually impaired to use other senses to experience the exhibited works and the exhibition as a whole as well. However they’re not intended only for the handicapped, but for a wider audience too. The authors aim to present them the world of the blind, while encouraging them to use other senses and to enter the world of visual art through “another door”. Multisensory tours are conceived to force the visitors to make use of all their senses: hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting, touching. The authors prepare some kind of an interface, like certain objects or foodstuffs that help the visitors to sense art. A discussion then follows that encourages the visitors to think about their sensations, about art and about the world of the handicapped.

The team of (SO)delujem will hold two tours of the Lighting Guerrilla exhibition at the Vžigalica gallery and present the lighting art “in a different light”. 'How to see light without sight?' and 'How to see in darkness?' are just two of the questions that the tour will try to answer for us with the help from the team of (SO)delujem.

 

The Creative office (SO)delujem includes into their projects both the handicapped and the experts who are trying to convey an authentic art experience. They were included into the 25 best cases of good practice by the European Commission for their merits in widening access to culture and their contribution to a more tolerant society. The Creative office (SO)delujem has developed from the (SO)delujem projects and the AKTIV group. They also perform training and education of cultural workers for work of this kind.
