The Connections scheme offers a tour of the exhibition focusing on a selection of exhibits, sensory and narrative stimuli. In each activity the works of art are the focus on which free connections and sensoral experiences are developed to empower different forms of communication.
Connections is designed for organised groups (day centres, associations, residential structures, territorial services and so forth) and is devised for people with cognitive and physical impairments, mental distress and other kinds of fragility.
To tie in with the Olafur Eliasson: Nel tuo tempo exhibition, the Connections scheme will consist of an introductory meeting and on-site tours based on an agreed timetable.
