Multisensory Museum: Kazuo Nakamura's Inner Structure
How can artists and designers create more multisensory experiences? OCADU Graduate Students in response to an Inclusive Design Multisensory Museum Course share their co-creative process of translating artworks in the AGO collection into multisensory objects. Students explore a wide variety of techniques to create an inclusive gallery experience in a series of Multisensory Museum Moments.
In this program, Japjot Singh presents an inclusive multisensory translation of Kazuo Nakamura's Inner Structure (1956). For the translation, Japjot has made a 1:2 scale 3D prototype of the artwork which will let the user experience the pattern present in the artwork by using the sense of touch. Unravel the mystery of Kazuo Nakamura’s art by taking a multisensory dive into curiosity.
Japjot Singh (he/him) is an India-born interior designer. Currently in his first year of the Inclusive design (M.Des) at OCAD University, he is exploring the untapped potential of public spaces to activate them and enhance their inclusivity.
