Tactile Guidebook

This comprehensive multisensory assistive guidebook is designed to enhance the visitor experience during self-guided tours or those led by Beyond Vision International (BVI). It features a range of accessible formats, including Large Printed Text, Braille, Tactile Graphics, and a companion audio narrative.

Four sets of artworks have been selected from two exhibitions: Resonating Life which Continues to Stand and Resonating Trees in the “teamLab: Continuous” exhibition, as well as art group LAAB's Harbour Cup and artist Dylan Kwok's Schrödinger's Bed in “Science in Art” exhibition. Each artwork is accompanied by a series of carefully designed Tactile Diagrams, with an embedded QR Code that accesses an online Audio Description script, providing additional context and enriching the interactive experience.

Lending: Please visit the Visitor Service Centre and ask the exhibition staff for detailed arrangements.

“teamLab: Continuous” Multisensory Art-Making

Resonating Life which Continues to Stand is an artwork that features ovoids emitting continuous light, allowing visitors to explore the interaction and relationship between people, cities, and nature from a new perspective. This workshop aims to connect visitors with teamLab’s artworks through multi-sensory experiences and visual art creations. These experiences will inspire participants to tap into their imagination and creativity, and depict their relationship with the surrounding people, ovoids, and even the city.

The workshop will begin with a brief introduction to two exhibits in the “teamLab: Continuous” exhibition and participants will have the opportunity to interact with the exhibits. After this, there will be a 45-minute art-making session. Visually Impaired friends are welcome to join us, as Tactile Guidebooks and multisensory materials will be used in the workshop.
