Canon and the National Museum of Natural History „Grigore Antipa” are teaming up to bring the multi-sensory exhibition „World Unseen” to Romania for the first time. It’s a photographic experience that’s accessible to all visitors, including those who are blind, visually impaired, or have typical vision.
According to data from the Ministry of Labor and Social Solidarity, around 84,635 people in Romania live with some form of visual impairment. For a lot of them, photography is still pretty inaccessible. „World Unseen” is based on the experience of blind and visually impaired people and offers a new way of experiencing visual art.
Canon’s elevated printing technology, audio descriptions, and Braille plates turn 12 photos taken by Canon ambassadors and photographers into real-life stories. This new approach offers visitors a unique way to connect with the images and stories behind them.
Through the PRISMA elevate XL software and the Arizona series of printers, Canon is making art more accessible to blind and visually impaired people, supporting art galleries and museums around the world by providing tactile and Braille printing.
