Sensing Hope
Sensing Hope
What does hope smell like, taste like, look like, feel like and sound like?
In a 5 day workshop with 5 participants, we investigated how hope, fear, longing and love (for example) can take on physical qualities or sensory associations. How feelings can be linked to physical states, colours, tastes and smells. How acoustics and sounds can make patterns in your heart cells (heart cell cymatics).
A remembered smell, taste, touch, sound, sight and the associations it congers up.
Or how memories have a sensory ‘partner’, almost like a soundtrack or a snippet one can fetch every time the memory is triggered or a sensory action that triggers a memory.
It was a heart-warming and intimate experience and became much more than just having to make 5 body-related works. The SENSING HOPE workshop united a group of people in an enriching encounter, in which each participant contributed to an investigation of what hope smells like, tastes like, looks like, feels like and sounds like.
This project was presented on the Munich Jewelry Week 2023.
