Tine Bech on the fourth floor

Danish artist Tine Bech is one of eight international artists in the exhibition Safe to Touch which will open on Friday 22 May at the Hub: National Centre for Craft & Design, in Sleaford, Lincolnshire. The artists are all actively involved in the sphere of what we can loosely label ‘the tactile’ turning the traditional ‘do not touch’ gallery rule upside down – inviting the visitor to touch, participate, explore and reconsider their conditioned behaviour and boundaries.
Tine Bech, whose work "Tumbleweed" is shown on the poster (left) "plays with the ambiguity of uncanny objects, directly involving, even obliging, the visitors to confront their initial feeling of repulsion".
Exhibition ends on 2 August 2009. More info at thehubcentre.info
