I am completely and utterly intrigued by the California Museum of Photography's current exhibition, Sight Unseen. Showcasing the work of twelve highly regarded blind photographers, Sight Unseen is one of the most inspiring exhibits I've read about. "It is the first major museum exhibition on a rich subject full of paradox and revelation." Their website features a gallery of images from the exhibit, which runs through August 29th. You can also read more about it on NPR.

you should check out the book "seeing beyond sight" by tony deifell which showcases the beautiful photographs of blind teenagers he worked with. a couple of years ago tony came to baltimore and i was able to take part in one of his "blind photography challenge" which was fascinating.

Wow -- so inspirational and surprising! I may need to take a drive to see this fascinating exhibition.
such an incredible display, that must be.
yes that is amazing.
That is so touching, especially with the hand drawn out... beautiful.
Where do you find these things??? You must be extraordinarily interesting or interested in life, same thing :)
Awwww I love this so much, it's so warm and inspiring. I do enjoy this very much.

I now feel the need to drive to Riverside to see this exhibit! one of my longtime friends graduated from UCR and her lil sis is going there in the fall... too bad this exhibit will be over by then!
How can I be a photographer and not have seen these? Shame on me!!! They are awe inspiring!
