Transcript
Art tends to be, by its very nature, a visual medium. A display of colour and light, texture and contrast.
But galleries like this have long struggled to cater for those whose vision is impaired. So, here at Utrecht's Centraal Museum [Netherlands] they are moving beyond two dimensions, transforming paintings into sculptures.
You don't look at this art. You touch it. You smell it. You listen to it. The visual becomes physical. Spectacle is replaced by something much more tactile.

The second painting from what I felt, that was just a regular painting. From what I felt, there were all kinds of blocks. One can feel very well - the kind of shapes those blocks are.
Sighted visitors are encouraged to cover their eyes, so they too can experience the exhibition in a new way. It has been described as a first experiment, art for everyone, that triggers all the senses.
