Two Way Mirror Exhibition

Two way Mirror is a collaboration between Sara–Amy and Sarah both supported by sense and sound artists Justin Wiggan.  The three of them have been exploring non-traditional communication methods as part of a new strand of research and development in arts and disability exploring ways to collaborate with non-formal language communication methods. The research is a start point to facilitate greater understanding of individual’s strengths of communication and at time overlooked talents. The exhibition will showcase early stage research sharing based on the text type response from Sarah and improvisation singing from Sara. Visitors can experience the research on sound watches and large scale installed text across the hub at Touchbase Pears.
