Description

This limited-edition print is a Braille translation describing Constantin Brancusi’s Sculpture for the Blind written by artist Lenka Clayton. The print stems directly from the artist’s work, Sculpture for the Blind, by the Blind, a collaborative project with The Fabric Workshop and Museum intended to widen the accessibility of Brancusi’s iconic sculpture in a new and poetic manner. This print was Braille-pressed at the National Braille Press in Boston, and hand letter-pressed in Pittsburgh.

Lenka Clayton, in collaboration with The Fabric Workshop and Museum, Philadelphia.
