Curatorial context
The Museo Tiflológico presents 'Himno a la vida' (Hymn to Life), an exhibition by French sculptor Muche (Muriel Vignet Lesbros), showcasing 16 of her artworks. Muche specifically created these pieces, realized in bronze, resin, and terracotta, to awaken the senses of touch, sight, smell, and hearing in visitors. The artist expressed her desire to exhibit for blind individuals, aiming to transmit emotion and joy through simplicity, with the exhibition's title encapsulating life's most important aspects: joy, meditation, tenacity, and movement.
The exhibition champions the equality of opportunity in art appreciation, emphasizing that art is for everyone, especially for those with visual impairments who often face limitations. 'Himno a la vida' actively breaks down these barriers, inviting visitors to touch and experience the art, with the collection proclaiming, 'Please, touch!'. A standout piece is 'Los placeres de los sentidos', a life-sized figure of a woman holding a naturally perfumed juniper wood ball, its textured surface emitting a subtle sound when touched, symbolizing multisensory empowerment. Some sculptures are left raw, revealing natural imperfections, and their textures and colors will evolve with visitor interaction throughout the exhibition's run.
