Optimizing the experience of dance for users of blindness

My artistic practice is driven by a desire to make art more inclusive. Since 2021, I have been optimizing dance experiences for blind users by translating the visual aspects of dance into other senses and uncovering the deeper layers of its creation.

This research emerges from my fascination with the social role of art and the need to make it accessible to all. I am continually exploring platforms where accessibility is integrated into the artistic outcome, allowing blind users to fully engage with and enjoy this art form.

Currently, as part of Danslab 2024, supported by ViaZUID Talentontwikkeling podiumkunsten Limburg and SALLY Dansgezelschap Maastricht, I am creating a research-based immersive and inclusive performance that merges dance, music, spoken word, and technology, where the accessible layer is used as an artistic input in the creation.
