New Perceptions of Familiar Places

Take time to think about how you engage the senses when walking in familiar places with this ‘Being Human’ event.

The University of Salford will be presenting New Perceptions of Familiar Places in our Victorian Gallery. It showcases a short video and sound installation of walks in Salford and several other cities around the world. During and after the video, the audience will be invited to respond in composing poems or drawings.

The video and the audience’s responses to it will encourage us to view familiar places in new ways.

Sessions held at:

• 12:00 – 12:15pm
• 1:00 – 1:15pm
• 2:00 – 2:15pm

Bookable via Eventbrite.
