I wanted to do a kind of installation piece of Braille writing.
I was inspired by...
http://www.fatcap.com/artist/know-hope.html
and
http://www.antonparsons.co.nz/Gallery/
...but.... it would take too long....
so...
I was given the idea to have Braille written on my skin.

What I want to do... wear minimal white clothing, white blindfold, have Braille written all over my skin with paint and/or glue. I want to "see" people's reactions. I want to reach out to them and have them touch me. Bring awareness to being blind, not just in the sense that you can't see, but also what you purposefully ignore.
"Touch me. It's so easy to leave me all alone with the memory of my days in the sun.
If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is." -Cats
