Haptic Poetry

Information

Haptic poetry combines characteristics of typography and sculpture to create work not only to be seen but to be touched. This group is for anyone who values sense of touch as much as sense of sight.

It's perfectly wonderful if you want to send out assemblage pieces. Anyone here receiving one from you will be elated!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on July 2, 2012 at 10:34pm: Yes, Suus in Mokum's art is BLUEtiful!

Comment by Bifidus Jones on July 2, 2012 at 7:09pm: Yes, the candles have been blown out and the chocolate cake has been eaten--pure haptic poetic bliss. Thanks again for all the birthday wishes.

Today I received this whimsical/sophisticated piece by Suus of the Netherlands:

I love the soft haptic trim at the top and you can really feel the bumps on that crazy monkey thing's shirt. The idea of cats watching a sort of sardine show is hilarious. Thanks, Suus!

Time for birthday cake...yummy haptic choco glam!

Comment by Bifidus Jones on June 13, 2012 at 3:39am: I just took a peek at TIC TAC's work--great stuff!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 13, 2012 at 1:54am: Dear haptic poets, if you haven't seen it - TIC TAC has an asemic noir-haptic work (her words) in the IUOMA gallery. Remarkable, IMHO.
