Public Art & Installation

Field of Touch | Walk Your Own Path

These public art projects center on accessibility, collaboration, and expanded ways of experiencing and navigating the world. Developed in partnership with individuals who are blind or visually impaired, the work reconsiders how art can be encountered beyond the visual.

Field of Touch, a multi-year installation at Braille Institute, transformed a stark, concrete space into a tactile environment composed of over 1,200 handmade ceramic and mosaic tiles. Created alongside students, volunteers, and staff, each tile is unique, inviting touch, interaction, and a more inclusive engagement with art. The project reflects a sustained, collective effort shaped by persistence, adaptability, and shared investment over time.

Walk Your Own Path, a temporary installation created in collaboration with artists Sarah Clifton and Kylie Sykes at the Muckenthaler Cultural Center, explores how individuals with vision loss navigate physical space through the use of white canes and guide dogs. Situated within a natural environment, the work emphasizes movement, and orientation.

Together, these projects foreground art as a participatory and accessible practice: one that extends beyond sight, and is shaped through collaboration and direct material engagement.
