About

This project explores the possibility of creating Site-specific installations and interactive spaces for the visually impaired.

As an artist and designer we take Sight or the ability to see (visually) for granted, what if the storyteller has to narrate to a visually challenged person...

How would one create a narrative or an experiential space which is fun yet can be appreciated by an audience who are visually impaired and audience with vision. In this project we will be collaborating with community of visually challenged and work along with them to develop an appropriate installation. This project invokes Multimodal-learning approach on experiences that involves sound, touch, movement, drama, olfactory in the installation.
