| Abstract
|
:
|
More Than Meets the Eye' seeks to dismantle traditional understandings of blindness through scrutiny of philosophical speculation, scientific case studies, literary depictions, and museum access programs for the blind. It introduces blind and visually impaired artists whose work has shattered stereotypes and opened up new aesthetic possibilities for everyone.
