Blindness refers to a spectrum of vision loss. A person’s experience of blindness can range from sight loss which interferes with your daily activities to total blindness. Total blindness does not mean that the person sees nothing at all, some people still see changes in light or a haze. Someone who is partially sighted has partial vision in one or both eyes. It is common for a blind person to identify with the Disability community as they do not identify as having their own unique culture and language, but not every blind person will connect with that label.
Image Description
Detailed explanations of an image that provides textual information to describe visual images to a person who is blind or partially sighted. When using Image Descriptions to describe art we can use a little more creativity than with typical image descriptions, and it provides another layer of artistic expression for the artist.
