The Museum of Non-Visible Art

The Museum of Non-Visible Art sells art that only exists in the imagination of the artist. It houses a variety of non-visible works of art that can only be admired by reading the artist’s description.

Ohaguro is a custom of dyeing one’s teeth black. It was most popular in Japan until the Meiji era. Tooth painting is also known and practiced in the southeastern parts of China, Pacific Islands and Southeast Asia. Dyeing is mainly done by married women, though occasionally men do it as well.

Spanish artist David Catá uses his body as a canvas for writing an autobiographical diary. He creates portraits of the faces of people who have left their mark on the artist’s life: family, friends, partners and teachers. They are sewn into the palm of his hand. The woven flesh work establishes a symbiosis between union, separation, pain and love. (Source)
