Share your view of art

The IMMA case study supports visitors in using the collections to develop their own perspectives and share those with others in order to help people to appreciate alternative points of view. The case study has a particular emphasis on supporting groups who are less able to visit the museum physically such as asylum seekers and children living with serious illnesses, as well as groups from marginalised or under-served communities.

What's going on

IMMA’s case study worked to support under-served communities to access collections and share their own perspectives, both online and in the museum, using the specially developed web app, Deep Viewpoints. During workshops, participants experienced slow looking, making personal connections with artworks and developing scripts, or stages of questions and statements that shared their point of view.

Explore how diverse communities have interpreted artworks and exhibitions at IMMA with IMMA Deep Viewpoints. Using this web app you can view works of art through the eyes of a wide range of minoritised or under-served communities, such as Irish Travellers, migrants and people seeking asylum, young people living with lifelong illnesses, and many other groups that have traditionally lacked access to the museum. Explore community-authored selections of artworks and share your own responses here.
