Unseen

Through the story of her own loss of full-sightedness and the associated grief, and the tender sharing of the stories of others, Joanne Bloch invites us into the worlds of the partially-sighted. Unseen makes visible various and complex experiences – opening up awareness of the many nuances of sight, and a world centred on sightedness. She brings to life the wide range of facets of daily life impacted: from interactions with medical professionals, to the painful use of language, to the design of urban spaces. Through the witnessing presence, attention and compassion that she brings to bear, Joanne invites us into seeing the world differently.
