*EXHIBITION*

*September 26 – October 14, 2022*
*Gales Gallery, York University
105 Accolade West Building,
86 Fine Arts Road, Toronto, ON *

/Sensoria: the Art and Science of Our Senses/ is co-curated by 
distinguished curator Nina Czegledy (Agents for Change: Facing the 
Anthropocene, 2020 & Leonardo/ISAST 50th Celebrations, 2018) and 
Sensorium director Joel Ong, with the support of assistant curators Eva 
Lu and Cleo Sallis-Parchet. /Sensoria/ explores the intersection of art, 
science and the senses, bringing together an international network of 
artists: Guy van Belle, Roberta Buiani, Lorella Di Cintio, Grace 
Grothaus, Kavi, Hrysovalanti Maheras, Agnes Meyer-Brandis, Gayil Nalls, 
Michael Palumbo, Michaela Pnacekova, Raewyn Turner and Brian Harris. 
Sited concurrently in both Poland and Toronto, the exhibition will 
explore the dissociative potential of contemporary technologies on the 
senses, treating it not only as a social crisis but also an opportunity 
for creative play and experimentation. It aims to engage a conversation 
about the senses from the perspective of art, but also science, 
incorporating artists that straddle the boundaries of knowledge 
production in a variety of ways.

*The exhibition is also open during **Nuit Blanche* 
<https://sensorium.ampd.yorku.ca/sensorium-nuit-blanche/>*on October 1, 
2022 as part of the **AGYU's "Streams"* 
<https://agyu.art/project/streams/>*project.*

*SYMPOSIUM*

*September 26 – October 14, 2022
Online and at Transmedia Lab, York University
105 Accolade West Building,
86 Fine Arts Road, Toronto, ON *

/Sensoria: the Art and Science of Our Senses/ symposium presents keynote 
lectures, discussions and performances around the connective aesthetics 
of everyday sensing and the knowledge-creation potential of artists and 
scientists collaborations.

The symposium leverages the exhibition content as the starting point for 
more in-depth conversation about the connective aesthetics of everyday 
sensing and the knowledge-creation potential of artists and scientists 
collaborating in innovative ways. The socio-political turbulences we 
have experienced worldwide during the last decade have created 
unprecedented social and personal strife. While connections are 
sustained now amongst virtual networks that straddle vast spaces, how 
might we consider the sharing of intimate senses through smell, touch, 
and bodily movement as a form of mutual support? The symposium explores 
questions such as these with keynote presentations by Ryszard 
Khuszcynski, Chris Salter and David Howse, as well as roundtables 
between artists and scientists: Agnes Meyer-Brandis, Gayil Nalls, Rasa 
Smite, Katarzyna Pastuszak, Grace Grothaus, Katarzyna Sloboda, Hilda 
Kosari, Agnieszka Sorokowska, Hrysovalanti Maheras, Raewyn Turner and 
Brian Harris. All aspects of the symposium will be presented with 
virtual components, so as to allow both in-person engagement in Toronto 
and virtual presence in Gdansk and elsewhere.
