In my body of work, Art and the Sensorium, I am investigating interactive multisensory art forms through printmaking, bookmaking, and installation art. Through the use of found images, I create narratives that evoke thoughtful conversation about interactions between people and their environments. In my work, I investigate two main topics, consensual and non-consensual touch, and the sound phenomena of Misophonia and ASMR. I am interested in the relationship between touch and sound and how those two senses can be activated through art and interaction. Through forms of polling and data collection, I gather information that is used to create text and visual aids to form books about my research though an artistic outlet. The book itself is also a multisensory experience in terms of touch and its state of being as a time based art form.
