“Painting is a blind man's profession. He paints not what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen.” Pablo Picasso
‘SEEING IN THE DARK’
‘Seeing in the Dark’ will be a multi-sensory, multi-faceted and rule-breaking art event, the like of which has never been seen in this region - with artworks specially commissioned to fulfill the extraordinary concept. 

Introduction:
Not being able to see facilitates a different way to experience art.  
For ‘Seeing in the Dark’ the usually bright and iridescent Create Hub gallery will be transformed into a place of darkness.  In the resulting enigmatic environment, guests will be invited to appreciate the art using their sense of touch.  With layered and embossed canvasses, using textures and rope, the artwork of the leading show will include tactile features by which they may be scrutinized and enjoyed in the drape of blackness. The art will include words you can touch, so we experience something similar to reading braille.  The goal is to enable fully sighted people to rethink the way they perceive art.
