In so doing it seeks to develop inclusion for students with a vision impairment. Intermeshing practice, teaching and research around issues of access, participation and education, it builds upon previous work exploring teaching strategies for the visually impaired within contemporary art practice (Axel and Levent, 2003; Hayhoe, 2008; Allan, 2014) and shares useful adaptations to help make learning about art more accessible for students with vision impairment. It also sheds light upon aspects of the question, \u2018What are the basics that an educator needs to know when designing art programs for persons with visual impairment?\u2019 (Axel and Levent, 2003: 51). This paper can be read as a benchmark for critical engagement in its attempt to combine performative pedagogy with an emphasis on technological means, access and visual impairment. While vision is favoured over other senses (Jonas, 1954) and with the increasing importance of digital and virtual realities as a major component of students\u2019 lives, never has there been a time in which the meanings of access are so broadened via technological mediation\u2014that draw on all senses\u2014to which artworks, as suggested, respond. Relying on all senses becomes an aspect of public pedagogy that is more inclusive.\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lee is booked for a residency at Spazju Kreativ, Malta's National Centre for Creativity, in April 2019.
