Photo by Pete Eckert, a blind photographer. Yes, you read that right.
“I am only a tourist in the sighted world. Women talk about a glass ceiling. Blind folks face a glass front door. We can look into the workplace but aren’t allowed to enter. I do something else. I slip photos under the door from the world of the blind to be viewed in the light of the sighted. I view my work during the event of taking the shot in my minds eye. I “see” each shot very clearly, only I use sound touch, and memory. I am more of a conceptual artist than a photographer.” ”
