This exhibition invited visitors to experience sculptures in complete darkness, emphasizing the sense of touch as the primary way to engage with art. It showcased 12 selected works chosen by individuals with visual impairments, highlighting a diverse range of styles and materials.
The Museo Tiflológico hosted 'El tacto, rey de los sentidos' (Touch, King of the Senses), an exhibition designed to immerse visitors in a world perceived through touch. The gallery space was kept in complete darkness, allowing participants to interact with 12 sculptures using only their sense of touch. This unique approach aimed to provide an experience similar to that of blind individuals choosing and appreciating art. The selected works, representing various styles and concepts, were presented in pairs and were chosen by 11 blind individuals who expressed their preferences based on tactile sensation and aesthetic appeal. The exhibition underscored the natural coexistence of artists with and without disabilities, with the artworks themselves serving as the primary determinant for acceptance among visually impaired participants. The selection process involved contextualization workshops for each sculpture, followed by individual voting. The featured artists and their paired works included Mercedes J. Marrodán ('Ayouta') and Sonia Cardunets ('Aurora'); Agustín Sanz de la Fuente ('Cortejo') and Paz Santos ('Abecedario'); César Delgado ('Robot en silla de ruedas') and Emilio Sánchez ('La Noche'); José Mª Prieto Lago ('Sueños de medianoche') and Ana Benegas ('Dos almas'); Elena Laverón ('Mujer con manos en jarra') and Pilar Vicente ('Ana'); and Miguel Detrell ('El Gallero') and Daniel Calvo ('La Castañera').
