Success for Photovoice

Posted on December 29, 2007. Filed under: Uncategorized |

I know that it’s been a while since I updated this blog and for my regular readers I apologise.

Truth is a lot’s been happening recently. One of the most exciting events for Enabling Work has been the opportunity to do the Braille signage and booklets for an Art Exhibition with a difference.

This ‘Beyond Sight Exhibition’ held by Photovoice in London was a great success.

“The most interesting photographic exhibition I have ever been to.”

Over 500 visitors came to explore and challenge conventional understanding of visual communication and to celebrate the possibilities of a medium traditionally regarded as the domain of the seeing.

‘It is obvious that a blind person cannot see, but to say that he cannot perceive, that is understand, discern, locate, feel, interiorise etc. and re-transcribe it, is as stupid and false as saying he can’t laugh, cry or eat. The fact is that he doesn’t see with his eyes but with his mind.’

Christian Lombardi, blind photographer.

We were so pleased to be the company chosen to produce the Braille Documents and wish to congratulate Matt and his colleagues on a wonderful exhibition.

Take a look at their site for more details:

We have recently assisted with a second Art Exhibition for Photovoice – It’s great to know we are raising awareness of how many individuals need to access information in deifferent formats such as Braille, Large Print and Audio
