Aesthesia is a multi-sensory experience inspired by six plants that have been historically used for their therapeutic properties. The exhibition provides stimuli for sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Visitors are first greeted by a tree-like structure at the front of the exhibition. A soundtrack, created by ALURIA in collaboration with Ashley G Garner’s project includes measured wavelengths taken from the actual live-recording of each chosen plant. Not Impossible Labs generously provides the ability for visitors to wear haptic suits, allowing them to feel the vibration of the audio. Methods and Madness will provide edible candy with each plant as an ingredient. CBIHatePerfume, just after exhibiting at the Smithsonian Cooper Hewitt Design Museum has joined Garner to provide unique scents made distinctly for Aesthesia.
Gallery 151 is made possible by the generous support of Alfa Development & Michael Namer.
Gallery 151 Annex at 361 Canal Street is part of ON CANAL. Visit oncanal.nyc for more information.
