The roles of haptic perception in visual arts
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe term ‘haptic’ refers to a multi-sensory perceptual system through which we comprehend spatial, tactile, and kinesthetic elements of our environment in relation to our body’s position and condition. This study investigates discourses about the roles that haptic perception plays in visual arts, with special attention being given to education. The study includes a historical review of assumptions regarding the haptic, as well as recent interpretations about the potential benefits of integrating haptic sensitivity into visual arts education.
