Braille Art

 RODS AND CONES is part of a series of mixed media work under the banner "Braille Art". That is tactile art that is accessible to sighted and vision impaired viewers. This work is circular and 600mm in diameter. It is a stylised representation of the retina of the eye with the rods and cones that combine to provide periforal and central vision. The interplay of light and shadow on the work is a striking feature.
