Experience Dr. Siobhán McGibbon’s exhibition Love Beyond the Species and the Sexual, through a tour created and led by visually impaired artist and aesthetic accessibility consultant Emilie Conway. Designed from a blind and low-vision perspective, this tour offers a rich multisensory non-visual experience of the speculative world of Xenophon.

Through Emilie’s live audio description and spatial guidance, visitors are invited to interact directly with tactile biomaterial sculptures and mycelial webs, feel sculpted forms and scale, and explore custom olfactory scents created with artist Frank Bloem.
