Learning Exhibition Access Tour
BSL Tour: More than Human
Join us for a group tour of highlights of the exhibition More than Human for D/deaf visitors who use British Sign Language and their companions, facilitated by Edward Richards.
What to expect
This major exhibition brings together art, science and radical thinking to ask how design can help our planet thrive by shifting its focus beyond human needs. It presents a new generation of international designers whose practices embrace the idea that human activities can only flourish alongside other species and systems. It is created in collaboration with Future Observatory, the Design Museum’s national research programme for the green transition.
This group tour will explore highlights of the 140 works in the exhibition, introducing you to the growing movement of 'more-than-human' design.
This tour is suitable for D/deaf visitors who use British Sign Language and their companions.
