It is an experience -type museum aimed at recovering "spacious" and "richness of mind" by improving sensitivity and improving imagination, so it is also useful for children's emotional education, and adults have forgotten their everyday excitement. May be revived.

This time, let's introduce the "sensory museum" that you can enjoy until you return!


What is the Senses Museum?

The sensation museum is a museum on the theme of the first human sense of the country born in 2000.

The first thing that will be greeted after entering the museum is the Circle N Circle.

This Circle N Circle is a huge human power mash scene produced by Yuji Fukui, an artist from Miyagi Prefecture.

It is a work that lies on a table on a huge wheel with a diameter of 3.2m, and turns the wheels and gears by turning the pedal with the limbs, and can be scribed with chalk.

I have actually experienced it, but I couldn't move as I wanted despite the simple movement of turning the pedal.
However, I felt the creator's thoughts in such frustration, and I was absorbed in it.

The biggest attraction of this sensory museum is that there are so many works on display that you can enjoy using all your senses!


Two exhibition zones that heighten your senses and imagination

The museum is divided into three zones: the Dialogue Zone, which is a physical sensory space, the Monologue Zone, which is a meditation space, and the Traverse Zone, which connects these spaces.

The theme of the dialogue zone is body sensation.
Dialogue is a dialogue, but it is named for the purpose of a virtual dialogue between the experienced person and the creator.
The dialogue is how the experience perceives a message from the creator, which is obtained through the work.

The monologue zone is a mental sense. Monologue means monologue.

If you enjoy dialogue with the creator, the monologue zone is the dialogue zone, and the dialogue with your own spirit and deepen your imagination.
By touching a number of works that inspire imagination, the senses of the experienced people can be sharpened and immersed in their own world.


A sensory museum even after returning home

As your senses and imagination increase, you can enjoy your daily life from a new perspective. In that sense, the sensory museum can be said to be a museum that you can enjoy even after returning home.

If you think everyday is boring, please drop in!
