Program
TIDAF Imaginary
Sign language possesses the rich capacity to convey mental imagery and abstract concepts that words alone often cannot capture using the body, primarily the hands, as its core medium.
This exhibition focuses on Classifiers (CL), a distinctive feature of sign language, to showcase its creativity and expressive potential through video and immersive installations.
