Museum Label
Matthew Glowacki
" Haptic data through Blindness "
Moss, paper, cast bronze, India ink
For this label, I was interested in the communication through touch. Can those who see, un-visually see, how a blind person could have, and have a similar experience in an art museum? This is precisely what I was going after, but also invite many other discussions of how we can invite the blind into our gallery spaces. I was interested in seeing that many of us don't read braille, why don't we learn, does it annoy us that we can't read what a blind person could in an art museum, the message that it sends can get a person to think with their fingertips. I feel that this was successful, because my peers found it to be a interesting topic to discuss.
