Anke Loh: RenaisSENSES Gallery Opening
Join us for the Opening of Anke Loh’s RenaisSENSES: HEALING THROUGH TOUCH at Chicago’s International Museum of Surgical Science. The culmination of her 2024 Artist Residency at the museum, Loh’s research into the healing practices of Western, Eastern, and Indigenous cultures informed her latest body of work. She developed new methods to help alleviate pain with touch-sensitive textiles in the form of pillows and wall hangings. The artist’s interactive textile installations throughout the museum’s permanent exhibition space, trigger sound recordings and moving imagery when touched. Created with the aim of nurturing intergenerational bonds and healthy connections within communities, her aim is to foster a more nuanced understanding of our five senses.
