Exhibition: The 7 Senses – Laoise Carey Master’s Project

On Tuesday, the 24th of June, Laoise Carey will hold a one-day fashion and textiles pop-up exhibition and research project as part of her Masters in Circular by Design.

Drop into the gallery at National College of Art and Design (NCAD) Dublin between 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM to experience textiles with your 7 senses:

  • touch
  • taste
  • smell
  • hearing
  • sight
  • vestibular
  • proprioception

Interact with the exhibits and share your thoughts, responses, and inspirations to help determine whether immersive experiences of fashion and textiles promote a deeper sense of empathy between us, our textiles, and the people and places that make them.
