ABOUT

Adi Toch, Receptive Vessels, Collect Art Fair, The Saatchi Gallery, 2017
Presented by Contemporary Applied Arts Gallery

The installation of eleven hand made metal vessels explores the relationship between the spectator and a potentially sentient object through a sensitive and surprising interaction. The viewers were encouraged to speak or even sing - in order to trigger the vessels' reaction through gentle movement and sound. It suggests a playful interpretation of museum displays, an experience that is an antidote to the traditionally hushed gallery environment.

This experimental display was developed in collaboration with sound specialists John Henry's Ltd

Many thanks to all who participated, special thanks to Corinne Julius for her sense of humour and Greg Parsons for his brilliant singing.
