Looking back at the seminar Tactile Storytelling, a collaboration between the Department of Textile and the Institute of Language Arts, we revisit a collection of tactile books designed for children and young people with visual impairments at the Vienna Federal Institute for the Blind.
Working in small groups, students developed tactile books for a specific young person. Through materials, textures, sounds and language, they explored how stories can be told, felt and shared beyond the visual.
Participating students: Kasia Baginska, Pauline Deml, Ines Frieda Försterling, Idil Selen Gökdemir, Liat Granierer, Nina Gstaltner, Celina Hacker, Hannah Lotti Hölbling, Sabine Krobath, Sonja Kuzmics, Franziska Richardsen, Natasha Stierli, Barbara Wendt
Supervised by Olga Grajsnowa & Ebba Fransén Waldhör.
