Museum of Brisbane (MoB) has created a number of successful participatory exhibitions in the recent past, including RMXTV and Storytellers: Next Chapter. Its latest iteration and the summer blockbuster, Play Moves, pushes the boundaries even further. It allows audiences to break the norms of standard traditional gallery viewing by actively inviting viewers to interact physically with the artworks.
Curator, Lucy Quinn, describes the six major immersive installations as offering viewers the chance to do what is usually forbidden in most galleries – to touch, move, explore, play and interact with the artworks, which basically grow and come to life as the audience participates.
